I wonder what that desperate sentence was--locked in your heart and soul for all time I'm sure. I am tantalized....

Wow, I love the rhyme scheme and find myself plesantly baffled. The middle stanza, though, strikes me with a pleasant chord. Especially with the revampage of the word "Acceptation." I don't believe I've ever come across that before. Hmmm, something to chew on.

Interesting form. Sparse, yet filled with meaning. I need to read it a few more times.

You found the gem and yet you still question whether to commit. That would present a pensive moment or two or three. Acceptation? Accept with a limitation? Or accept at the station or crossroads. Well done, I like.

I like it. Each time I read it I feel as if there is more.

The risk,
so daunting,
but still.
The love is found
within the pain,
an elevated masochism
becoming a
holy transcendance.
You've only to take

the leap.
