Battle of Conquerors

It's often said that "Love conquers all" but, what about fear?

I looked at you straight in the eyes 

Just so to hear my mind say it-- 

Veni. Vidi. Vici. 

I came. I saw. I conquered. 

And I laughed at the thought; 

See, who is to say what conquers? 

Is it the happiness that I have you 

To myself once again? 

Or is it the fear of the thought 

That I might lose you yet once more? 

It is not your numb, staring eyes 

Where I can find such an answer, 

Nor is in mine, because you see, 

In my eyes there is a clash of two worlds, 

The affection I feel for your words 

And the fear that collides with the 

Contradiction behind those talked love notes 

That slide from your lips, as if they're nothing. 

My mind knows nothing but fight its urges 

Whilst my heart digs both their graves--

Much as it might be a tabboo 

For me to ask which of us shall win the conquer 

And which one shall perish with the fall 

I will still hold you dear in my embrace, 

Matter not if its with fear or faith, 

My thought came to you 

My heart thundered when it saw you 

And though my body shakes in terror 

My soul has already halfy conquered 

Because even in battle, you never left my mind 

And if there's something I can feel from your stare, 

Is that I never left yours.

Welcome Diana
Talked love notes are one thing
Writing one another
I enjoyed this
A wee look in your heart mind
Excitement mixed with fear
Particularly liked the part when you question if it's happiness or fear of losing you are feeling
A feeling of the grass is always greener on the other side
Well written
