PC: Designed by the Author
Staring up at the bright light above
Numb from the shot, I ponder on  love

I know the drill, that’s a numbed kill
Yet in love for a smile, I keep still

The hum of the drill, a familiar sound,
Reminds me of feelings that swirl all around

How willing was I to trust
While baring myself was a must?

Maybe the art of surrender
Could take me in love’s yonder...

Love can be sweet, like sugar on the tongue,
But also sharp, like a dentist’s instrument young

It can make your heart skip a beat,
But also leave you feeling incomplete

As I sit here, captive in this chair,
I can’t help but think of the love I bear

Is it a comfort, a gentle embrace
Or a pain that leaves a permanent trace?

Maybe the art of surrender
Could take me in love’s yonder...

Along with the drilling & tearing
I find a part of me, cleaning & healing 

Discomfort disappears that was a while ago
I wonder, is it because of a dissolving ego?


I don’t know the answer, but I’ll keep searching,
Pondering on love, while my teeth are lurching

For love is a journey, with twists and turns
And maybe one day, my heart will learn


Until then, maybe the art of surrender
Could take me in love’s yonder...
