once...

 

reflecting back

 

...in retrospect

 

at the attack, 

which... 

left me unprotected  

 

while unexpected... 

my reaction, 

 

left my spiritual center of balance, 

shaken, yet intact

 

never would i consciously 

allow such strong attraction,

 

throw me off my aim... 

 

cloud my vision to your game

 

or was it mine, 

played directly back at me... 

 

i dropped my guard, 

took a hit 

 

...hard...

 

started to initiate 

a chain reaction, 

 

...created a diversion... 

 

a distraction, 

designed to align 

 

and breach my defenses, 

so readily... 

 

to let it get the best of me

 

had i not... 

resorted the deck

shuffled the cards 

and cut them, 

 

...initiated 

the back up plan

 

while i had 

the least of a chance 

 

to replay my hand, 

while 

i ...could bounce

 

 

C2   

 

 

if, only i hadn't 

but... i should have 

known, better...

Tight! Have been dealt a bad hand before...never let bouncing back void mission purpose. Deep write. Peace and Love.

On the lighter side, we weren't meant to win every hand... knowing when to walk away ...is priceless
