THE ROAD I TOOK

in poetry •  7 years ago 

Last night I did the impossible
I halted pleasure for a slice of pain
Muted lust for a chance at love
Love that maybe is but a fluke

I had a choice to just enjoy
The blissful touch of pure chemistry
Then realized that I’ll only destroy
True friendship with lustful artistry

She had no say, I made it so
Heated emotions now turned to tears
I let them roll right down her cheeks
Then rested well soon as she slept

I had a choice to give or take
I chose to give her love that’s pure
Not taking that which she called her own
It was a choice I had to make

I DID IT RIGHT

Congratulations bro on doing it right. This is the kind of self-control we always preach to men. You also wrote this poem right. Well-done! I just followed you.

That's beautiful and the right choice :)
