Strait Expectations

Such fuss over a ring that has not rung.
Breathless for a ding that has never dung.

Why be a toad when you can be a prince?
Why wait as a frog for desperate kiss?

So much worry over love not promised.
Wasted wanting for stories dishonest.

Overthought chance; romantic comedy.
Underwhelmed by fact; therefore tragedy.

Don’t hang your hearts & souls on what could be.
Choose here & now; wake from dreaming & see.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
