Will Be As Will Be

By: Gus Victoria

Dreams are dangerous interlopers,

Uninvited guests to a grand feast

Celebrating a new joy found,

Buried in the past it dug itself out,

The dangerous vision of old,

There is no gamble to be made

For a heart must forever risk,

But never seek to lose,

She wears a red dress while you wear blue,

Her hair is down,

Yours is not,

She and I dance,

As I playfully resist,

You and I sit,

As a broken heart you nurse,

And in the mending,

Without permission

Become queen.

She still haunts those rough borders

Of my tortured imagination,

Yet you in each kiss

Create a new reality,

Each time love is made

Another memory is banished,

It is as it is willed,

Though I will be

As will be.
