On the Cusp

I take one more glimpse before I walk away
Checking for signals that all is okay
A faint smirk across your lips you display
More comfort than any words you can say
The light gentle brush that came from behind
Reminds me intentions are ever so kind
Though passionate reasons are leaving me blind
Alternative outcomes lay trapped in my mind
In being realistic we know what will be
A circular pattern that will never flee
The ache is the contrast that I can forsee
But never for long as you tantilize me
Just wishing for courage to leave it behind
You cannot leave it alone and must always remind
Hopeless and timid not sure what I will find
On the cusp of forgotten and etched in my mind
