Question: Do you experience vertigo!?
"Resolve of Waking Hearts" - acrostic quadrifid

Deeper I fall into the vortex of haunted eyes,
Illumination now seems a dim vision!.
Zephyr winds in my heart whisper, "Fall!."

Zealously, I guard you, and finally realize!.
You were always prey to Cupid's precision--
Insane, spinning, under your thrall!.

Now I find time unable to stall,
Grieving the days I foolishly spent
Longing for the transience of love; fool's golden gleam!.

One last time, hear my desperate call,
Vicious passion, the truth, my soul intent!.
Eventually, I will make you more than a dream!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

"You were always prey to Cupid's precision" <----- LOVE that line!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't know if I experience vertigo or not, I mean I get dizzy quite often but it's more like a slow-motion-hard-to-focus-on-things kind of a dizziness and then I black out and have a seizure (usually petit-mal)!.
I loved the rhyme scheme in this ABC, ABC, CDE, CDE that really tide the first two stanzas to the last two!. Is that already a style (I mean with a name and all), because if it isn't maybe we could call it Terza Evadne!. An acrostic in Terza Evadne--sounds cool uh!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Lovely poem, and yes vertigo is the culprit who kept me from become a pilot, and flying airplanes!. They said with the degree of my vertigo, I would fly into the ground and not know it til I hit!. I have to use mirrors in my cars, if I turn my head sharply I will get disoriented for a few seconds!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
