Winter's Song: Chapter IV: Useless

She creeps into my mind, like criminals in the night,
Often causing me to wonder what's wrong or right.
Rewind the views, let me partake again,
As she moves with unimaginable elegance and grace.
Seeing her presence, smooth as the velvet sky,
My soul quivers at her entrance, and I know why.

Restraining myself, I can't let her know,
My desire to love, to share her eternity.
Clumsily losing myself in her presence,
Crawling just to pull away,
Falling to one knee, gripping my mouth avoiding what  next to say.

Speak on what I really feel? Nah... she won't be surprised.
She's too wonderful, amazing, like a fragrance I refuse to let go,
When we're together, praying she manages to never go.
Freedom is my illusion, I wonder if I'm also captured in her thoughts,
Unable to see our limitations, greater together, lesser apart.

She's crashed my existence, and I without insurance,
As her first impression, was a lasting impression.
Inconceivable to forget, there is no release,
Her love calls out to me, proclaiming we must be.
Weak at my core, yet stubbornly I attempt to resist.
If I were to walk away, I'll always wonder what I'd missed,
When wishing we said good night, too often say goodbye,
The night ends too soon, requesting the answers why.

My words are Conflicted, my action contradictions.
Telling her I'm not one to marry,
But it's her across the threshold I wish to carry.
I've been torn, I can't trust my issues,
Pride won't let me share,
Confidence says I shouldn't care.

God help me through this, I know it's self induced,
I'll be lying if I said I didn't want to love again.
Does she really care? 
Why does she show me such attention?
Could it be, she also shares all these emotions I've mentioned?
Stronger than I, yet I twinkle in her eyes.
And I'm left with nothing more than excuses,
But when it comes to her, they're all but useless.
