Sweet Retreat

Unrequited - most of it.
The glitter of diamonds. A smile of persuasion and the rhythm of serenade. Happy valentine's day! Perhaps, the flow was suffocating and perhaps, the moment was humorous but the intent of un-harm was uncanny. A heart that contained a heart - so willing, so appreciating, so bizarre. The recipient was more than what words can confide, more than what expressions could confine, more than what the heart could convey. The eeriness was effable, the efface desirable but the perseverance prevalent and yet the divine refusal. The greater on denial and the lesser surprised. What was it that the sole wanted? Why was the cipher misunderstood? Ah well... the deed was done and the message demodulated and delivered. And, that was all that was required, eh? Crippling psychology. Besotted soul.

But, then again, why bother the heart that's bound to bear more than what the sole can share? Let 'it' be. Let it be just the way it wants to be. Protect 'self'. Save the greater the embarrassment - the insult the lesser can cause. Maybe it's time for the sole to seek the soul it hasn't yet sought than to seek the soul that doesn't see to seek the sole on question. Maybe it's time for the misery to end.

Quivering defeat.
Sweet retreat.
