Between Forked Paths

Hi!

So, ... a few days back I ran into the inspiration behind a poem I wrote almost 15 years ago called Between Forked Paths. Of course, I had to go and dig it out, and reading it had me giggling at how keenly I felt life and love, and passion and torment... Not much has changed!

Scroll down to read, and let me know what you think. 

Love you madly!

Amiena 

Between Forked Paths

Between forked paths I stand and waver 

Presented with two equal choices

Undecided indecision, rife and stifling

I am the spider web, too many radii present too many choices

I am the math equation, numerous tangents, going no where?

And why?

Because you came close

And I, in a moment unguarded bid you enter

And you lingered just… a moment

…a moment and I am marked deep within, scorched by your fire

The flame that will not be subdued

And what would I rather,

why would I rather

A choice between adoration or struggle

What sense, this dive in perversity

This fly struggles in your web spun of silk

Memories of escape have faded yet it struggles still

And …hidden at heart, is the secret unspoken thrill
