Betwixt and Between

Quote: “And all of a sudden I’m stuck between wanting to wait for you and wanting to forget you. I don’t know which one is better so somehow I’m doing both at the same time.”

And all of a sudden, I'm caught betwixt,
Yearning to wait, but longing to forget,
A crossroads of desires, uncertain and wild,
In this paradoxical realm, I'm reconciled.

Should I wait, like a sentinel in time's embrace,
For the possibility of love's sweet grace?
Or should I cast away these thoughts of you,
Release the hold, bid a fond adieu?

Two opposing forces, entwined within me,
Yearning and detachment, in perfect harmony,
I find myself treading a path unknown,
Simultaneously waiting and letting go, sown.

A dance of contradictions, both fierce and tender,
Holding onto hope, yet surrendering its splendor,
In this intricate tapestry of heart's refrain,
I navigate the labyrinth, embracing the pain.

For waiting is a whisper, a melody of hope,
A flickering flame on a darkened slope,
While forgetting is an act of liberation,
A chance to heal, find self-restoration.

So I dwell in this liminal space of in-between,
Where longing and release converge, serene,
I embrace the ambiguity, the uncertainty,
Finding solace in this state of duality.

For in the depths of my yearning heart,
I discover strength, a transformative art,
To wait and forget, to hope and let go,
In this paradoxical dance, love's essence shall flow.

And as time weaves its threads of fate,
I hold onto patience, while relinquishing weight,
For the answers lie not in choosing one or another,
But in embracing both, transcending all bother.

So I shall wait for you, while forgetting too,
A symphony of contradictions, a love anew,
In this tender balance of desires untamed,
I find my peace, where heart and soul are reclaimed.
