Would You Trust a Stranger

Would You Trust a Stranger

 

At first sight I did not think of him

As anyone I’d want

For as shortly as he did appear

I knew it was a hunt

 

But silly me…I could not phathom

The fallacy hidden beneath his grin

And suddenly he took away

My sail above a howling wind

 

At first I blamed myself

For not becoming his precious jewel

But then I realized that it was he

Who was the unclothed, engaging fool

 

Would you trust a stranger

With your heart of golden pin

Or would you never take the chance

To ever love again

 

For there are mountains that stand tall

To hide the face of winds made strong

While grueling seas….whose waves of beauty

Rise above its somber song

 

How different then …is it the ways of lust

Of love hidden deep beneath a sin

Responding to the moods and thoughts

Of a stranger who would pretend

 

We may not want to face the desires

Of the mind as it toys with romance

And courts the moments of passions lost

That did not have a chance

 

Would you trust a stranger

To carry you  beyond the core

Of a wishful love lost in deception

That your  heart could not ignore

well as always meet a stranger in a public place and find everything you can about them but usually someone who goes that long and is open about themselves will in the end become either really good friends or a Lover

well done with your thoughts being expressed here-stay safe always my friend

Only if that stranger was you Kathryn. My mind tells me the answer to your prose would be no, but it's written so well that my heart would be inclined to say YES !

Excellent work and smooth flow in this piece. Continue with more of this romantic style...truly enjoyed so...but then again Romance pieces are my genre.
Reviewed by E. Richardson 4/3/2008
lovely bit of work here... well done flow, great rhythm and a great play on the theme of deception.

You give your reader pause for thought, Kathryn. There is no understanding the motives of some individuals. Thank you. Love and best wishes to you,

Regis
