Tonight’s Pain

Tonight’s expression is not the usual game;

A story of love, lust, or loss.

My conflict between science and art is,

searching for the woman and not the girl.

Tonight I surrendered to the moment

Forgetting about definition and form;

Seeing in between now and then.

Looking back without staring.

Games come and go and if life,

Wasn’t as it is: Would I be wrapped,

in a cloak of love and poems.

Tonight’s words have found a new beginning.

I submit to reflection in poetic longings.

Where did I begin to fall?

Where did I lose my rhythm?

A tempo intended for life’s energy and time.
