Sometimes in life, even when late,
Destiny calls, maybe it’s fate.
Making you ponder while questioning why,
Maybe it’s written way up in the Skye.
Impossible prediction, without much warning,
A hot sultry day, or a cool “Krist” morning.
Mattering not, how did it arrive?
Stirring your interest, coming alive!
You have who you want, the perfect match,
How can another, be a tempting catch?
They drive through your heart, like a truck down a road,
Hauling your interests as part of their load.
Complete opposite lives but hearts feel the same,
Two wild souls, impossible to tame.
Barriers a plenty, can they go down?
Like cutting a branch that falls to the ground.
Beauty is just a sample, of such an allure,
Honesty and heart, makes you crave more.
The words that they write, cut like a knife,
Dripping with passion that changes one’s life.
No matter the temptation, it’s not the right time,
Bound by circumstance, should be a high crime.
You can’t meet the need or act on your fire,
So from afar, you can only admire.
If it were simple, we all would find love,
Finding yourself, would fall from above.
Your guard goes down, you just can’t avoid,
But reality slaps and you’re left with a void.
Maybe it sparked up, much too fast,
Flames that high, were bound to not last.
An impossible pace, the bar too high,
Like a speeding mustang, that passes you by.
A piece of you gone but you’ll never forget,
You’d do it again, without the regret.
Whoever said, if you love it, set free,
Had never felt exactly like me.
But worry you not, it’s time to move on,
Can’t change the past because it’s long gone.
They make you better because you get them,
And you grow as a person from just having met them.
Be naughty, be wicked, be who you are,
Puff out your chest and show off your deep scar.
Stay strong, stay tough and live for the thrill,
Do what you do cause I know I will.

First, I am a fan of your work, you have a fluent artistic and very appealing way of expression . .. no doubt the metaphors are truly astounding in the poem , however, will you please accept a different point of view that The poem could have addressed..
the easiest course of action would be to let go of the past and live your life . is this the right choice though ?? We always throw the burden of choice on fate , circumstances etc.. I think, to a large extent , this is a defense mechanism we use to escape forward the burden of our decisions .. if girl and a guy love each other deeply but for some reason or another , and at a certain moment in time , could not be together, why to settle and sacrifice the deep love and affection especially if the circumstances can change along with time /place ? Why not to put a fight for our love? True deep love similar to the one described here comes once in a life time...if a guy adores his woman deeply and he tried to reach out to her multiple times and got pushed away reaffirming the flame of love that is burning in his heart and soul regardless time, place or a other circumstance .. the burden falls upon the lady for once especially if she is strong, courageous , And dominant lady, as pictured in your stories with an image close to a a true Goddess. Why not act like a Goddess, a Goddess of your lover ? behaving in such a divine way and show him the path will own his heart forever especially if he tried again and again and was pushed away ..living our life away from each other is the easy escape, but in my opinion , is not the right course of action .. the impact of reaching out even slightly to him , will brin joy and happiness to his And her life particularly that .. he already worships her but need a glimpse .. just a different perspective i thought of sharing

First, I am a fan of your work especially the Series titled (foot fetish Friday’s). Believe it or not, it had a huge resemblance of real life events that I personally encountered especially the main two characters.. anyways, back to this poem .. no doubt the artistic expressive metaphors are truly astounding , however, plz allow me to differ with the logic / rationale behind it and allow me to express a different point of view . It is not place to advice on key life events but since the poem is open to public discussion, I hope you accept this feedback .
Obviously, the easiest thing to say would be a word of encouragement and positive reinforcement to a decision you kind of committed to .. ( let go of the past and live your life ) .. is this the right choice though ?? We always throw the burden of choice on fate , circumstances etc.. I think, to a large extent , this is a defense mechanism we use to escape forward the burden of our decisions .. if you and him love each other deeply but for some reason or another and at a certain moment in time , you could not be together, why to settle and sacrifice your deep love and affection especially if the circumstances changed and time /place are among these circumstances ? Why not to put a fight for your love? True deep love similar to the one u describe comes once in a life time...if your guy loves you deeply -and I am sure he does- and he tried to reach out to you multiple times despite what transpired between you, that means the flame of your love is still burning in his heart and soul regardless time, place or any other circumstance .. the burden falls upon u for once ..you are strong and courageous , you are a dominant lady, as pictured in your stories with an image close to a a true Goddess. Why not act like a Goddess, a Goddess of your lover and of fate ? behave in such a divine way and show him the path .. especially if he tried again and again and was pushed away ..living your life away is the easy escape, but in my opinion , is not the right course of action .. u won’t believe the impact you will have on him if u reach out even slightly to him , you will own him for life .. he already worships you but need a glimpse and he will live his life to make you happy .. don’t waste love because of circumstances..his frustration and little despair is understandable .. after all he is a human and humans can become tired but that does not mean he does not love u..
Anonymousover 4 years agoSuch a beautiful poem, Brittni. Really sincere, introspective and heartfelt. You conveyed so much with your beautiful lyrics. You captured the feelings of love, passion and heartbreak so well. Great rhymes too. You make a great point: sometimes it may be too late to make it with the person you love, but you can-and should-enjoy yourself and live your life the best you can. I also really liked how you wrote "written way up in the Skye", keeping some of your other works in mind :) My favorite parts were:
"Complete opposite lives but hearts feel the same,
Two wild souls, impossible to tame.
Barriers a plenty, can they go down?
Like cutting a branch that falls to the ground.
Beauty is just a sample, of such an allure,
Honesty and heart, makes you crave more.
The words that they write, cut like a knife,
Dripping with passion that changes one’s life.
No matter the temptation, it’s not the right time,
Bound by circumstance, should be a high crime.
You can’t meet the need or act on your fire,
So from afar, you can only admire.".
And
"Maybe it sparked up, much too fast,
Flames that high, were bound to not last.
An impossible pace, the bar too high,
Like a speeding mustang, that passes you by.
A piece of you gone but you’ll never forget,
You’d do it again, without the regret.
Whoever said, if you love it, set free,
Had never felt exactly like me."
Keep up the great work, Brittni. You are very talented. I really enjoy reading your stories and poems.
Anonymousover 4 years agoI will always love you
Once two souls are connected
They become one
They may not unite in physical form but their souls always long to each other.
Both may be harsh and cruel to each other
Distance fate obstacles may separate them
Yet they are one. They may fight the strong longings. The brain will play mind tricks on the soul .. circumstances, obstacles , differences , yet the heart will dismiss it all..
the two possible outcomes of this struggle are : they may keep wandering around all their lives with deep missing part of their hearts. Or they make peace with their souls and admit the reality that they are one.
I love u ac , always and forever. Whether u r a mile away or thousands miles away
Aj
