Awkward Moment

and what is asked the immortal question
of that which tomorrow has brought
stands a ready guard to isolation, forget-me-knots
as a piece of time floats easily attainable on the hurricane
would that a single look could bring regression
and a world of unwarranted sanity first bloom again
 
if I reached out my hand would you let me fall
or turn your back on prescribed reality's joke
to watch in slow motion as the clock rewound
a paper, a hope, a memory reborn from bloody ashes
that smiles with some sickening sorrow in the dark
until unending impossible light breaks free

Author's Note

lots of symbols/inuendo...the idea was to contrast emotions using only symbols

if I reached out my hand would you let me fall - you totally captured the title in this one line...

I like this very much and think you have done an excellent job of what you set out to do!

And that you did... I just love the way you started this though.... It seems as if it was chipped from somewhere else as if you took soemother poem and created two out of one! nice write!
