"Reaching But Never Grasping"
  by MzSpoon aka Lyrical Diva No. 1


In a relationship
but never really knowing where you stand
is a dangerous position.
Your mind is often bombarded with unanswered questions
but your subconscious knows
what your cognitive can’t seem to wrap itself around.

When someone withholds the totality
of their identity
from another human being in hopes to keep them at bay,
they
are doing both parties a disservice.
One will be dissuaded by the fraudulent representation,
while the other is receiving the benefits
knowing
that they have never given of themselves
completely.

One may be the one that surpasses
in the bedroom,
but the one willing to become what the other person craves for…
having the intimacy attached with the physicality
magnifies the negated opportunities taken.

In the end,
the one who is willing to relinquish
and begins to share
of themselves completely knowing that love is gamble
is that much closer to a win/win situation
than the previously mentioned.

For,
who really wants
love without complete disclosure?
Aren’t you just setting yourself up for the image
hoping to attain
Nothing more than a mirage?

*Applause* Like really, what an ending! A mirage though? So many questions can reside when they're never addressed, but overlooked
