Holding Sway
I try and pretend it doesn’t happen and that I don’t feel this way
She haunts my dreams regularly, as a grail to pursue
Perhaps a reminder of the things I want
With the frequency of dreams, it seems more like a need
My head and heart go to war at the thought of her
Dreams of a life of passion together
In conflict with the idea that someone in the world
Holds that much sway over you
I’ve had the experiences
The adventure and the passion
A small foretaste of a possible future
Yet I feel guilt in my pursuit of happiness
Something akin to faith
Even though she is something akin to fate
