Crossroads

When you are sitting at a difficult crossroad,
And you are unsure whether to commit.
Be brave and always remember,
Unsure is the yes you’re afraid to admit.

Resistance

What we had was real,
Can’t pretend it didn’t exist.
Our connection was something electric,
Until you began to resist.

You can change the way you act,
But it will never change the past,
And If you hadn’t put a halt in the works,
A great love would have grown fast.

Calypso

Eyes twitching against your will,
Your legs are feeling numb.
Drifting in and out of dreams,
Wishing the next day would come.

The next day holds what you desire,
Something that brings you much pleasure.
Not money, nor breakfast, nor love or presents
But an alarm that repeats itself NEVER !

Hello Again
Opuss ... I have been gone for a while. I opened this account when I was 13 years old (so I do apologise for some of my earlier/whinier work) and now, I really can't believe it, but I am 18. Schooling is over. I've begun a Law degree at University and am feeling free as ever.
It was when I came across an old diary of mine and read some old poems that I realised how much I missed Opuss, missed this community, the writing, and reading some brilliant work of other infamous Opuss-ians. So, I intend on making my (second... maybe third) debut on Opuss, if I am able to come up with anything good.
I feel blessed to be a part of this community, and would like to thank everyone here for making this small little app so special.
It feels good to be home

I just want to be freed from the deep gaze of your eyes,
The gentleness of your touch and your lips which speak your lies.
"Dont leave me" "I need you", "I crave you" "I love you",
I cannot believe that I believed, the words that seemed so true.
I am too strong to let this phase me, I wont let him have his hold.
Nothing, no one, can hurt me, because my heart is made of gold.
