Torn between our distant shores
Separated by the miles
Words have drawn us together
And we seal them with our smiles
Torn between a life we have
And the one we someday might
Torn between what may be wrong
But what too could be so right
Torn between such aching pain
That threatens our existence
Torn between enormous gain
Is it not worth persistence?
Hearts and minds so very torn
Sleep on it, my love, till morn

And we seal them with our smiles"
One of the best sonnets I've seen, Little Kate! msp
Dave: From one poet to another .... I am most honoured!
Lezlie, that is just so very sweet of you to say. Thank you!
Kit: Did I just see those three little letters! Oh my! Thank you!
Marty's Husband: It's so nice to see you too, my friend! If only life was simple, eh?
I love this poem!
The conflict of risk/reward is what we all struggle with. The tension is evident and only if a good night's sleep could provide the answer... CARPE DIEM!
scanner: And a special thank you to you!
Bluish Mood: Welcome! It's lovely to meet you! Risk and reward ... heart and mind .... choices and decisions ... struggles all.
Sheila: Such a wonderful compliment! Thank you!
LL2: Thank you, lovely Lady!
This was beautiful. Deserving of an 'msp" (although I don't know what that is!)
(An 'msp' = Monkey Sue Pick .... via OS's gorgeous Kit Duncan!)
Thank you for such kind words. Safe travels my friend!
