The loud bass of my heartbeat is all I can hear
As you look at me and flash a smile that's so sincere
Your eyes are soft as the gentle zephyrs cheer
The blossoming emotions are so achingly dear.
My fingers reach out to trace the silkiness of your skin
I watch in fascination as your lips broke in a charming grin
I take a deep breath to calm my heart's fast beating
But shortly, I decide to give up and let my feelings win.
Your image always haunts me every cold night
When the moon's silver shreds sparkle with might
Countless times there was when I tried to fight
But I cannot turn back from something that feels so right.
The raven hair that frames your handsome face
It goes with the wind in a dance so full of grace
You tilt your face to welcome the sun's golden rays
And let the playful wind continue with its chase.
Your eyes look at me in a tender gaze
This sent my heart in a pit of complicated maze
The doe-like orbs that complement the angle of your face
Always touch the side of my heart where emotion lays.
Your shoulders are broad and your body is lean
The warmth of protection they promise is readily seen
But I can never let myself fall for this grave sin
I have to turn back even if the pain is crippling.
I clutch my heart to save it from its downfall
Trying to ignore its insistent plea and lamenting call
Tampered pieces of my heart scattered across the hall
Yet I ignored it to keep my sanity…
For you could only ever be my Ge after all…
I clutched my chest protectively in an attempt to still its harsh pounding. The truth that unveiled before my very eyes had been enough to draw shock. I could literally feel the pain radiate to my lungs, making breathing a hard labor. I stumbled on a cushion, feeling my strength dissipating from my body.
My phone played a familiar melody and I instinctively pressed the 'read' button. Like what I expected, it was a message from someone who had always been so painfully dear to my heart. I smiled tearfully. He had invited me to have dinner with him at his yacht. My heart fluttered blissfully in its cage at the thought of it and I didn't know what I feel anymore. It was like a tug of war between two opposing forces that are too strong; neither wanting to let go.
A solitary bead of tear escaped the rim of my eye before I could stop it. With shaking hands, I texted my little sister; telling her to get her most beautiful cocktail dress ready tonight.
