A new dawn has arrived
The time is now reflection
Upon aspects that changed
Which improved our connection
Laughing at that old reflection
Passing me down the halls
Propelled my pride's protection
From you, but my heart has changed
As it embraces who you are
Because before, it couldn't sustain
That seemingly frail connection
While today, nothing's the same
Tomorrow, we'll try for perfection

#51: The Trilogy's Final Epic (Part 1)
I must continue for I haven't reached my end.
Never once did I believe that it'll be this way.
As the men are marching towards me, I shall not be taken captive without a fight.
Kill me now or surrender to my might!

#50: Sestina's Tomorrow
An Arabian sunset and the Bohemian breeze
Soothes my poorly conditioned mind
Which has been affected by the pain
From the departure on that day
In which my life has pledged solitude
Never again to be fooled
For a wise man doesn't succumb to fools
As he wants no part of a winter's breeze
He'd rather be reduced to solitude
Then allow someone to seduce his mind
Wise's assistance on that day
Could've delayed the inevitable pain
Becoming an expert in woeful pain
I would once again be fooled
During the midst of Summer's day
Sometime between the heat and the breeze
Temporary dementia would contort my mind
Mistakingly leading me out solitude
So, I shall revert back to solitude
This place relieves me of pain
Allowing reason to protrude in my mind
To never again be fooled
It shall cool my mind as a breeze
Slowly learning lessons from that day
Regrets are thought about that day
When relaxing in solitude
Feeling the Bohemian's comforting breeze
Alleviates any threats of pain
Those of which attempt to fool
The current state of my mind
Despite the damage on my mind
The incurred on that day
I pledge to never again be fooled
Assisted by my solitude
I shall never again feel that pain
That overcame me as a breeze
The cool breeze felt by my mind
Allowed the pain to die on that day
As solitude vows never again to be fooled
Soothes my poorly conditioned mind
Which has been affected by the pain
From the departure on that day
In which my life has pledged solitude
Never again to be fooled
For a wise man doesn't succumb to fools
As he wants no part of a winter's breeze
He'd rather be reduced to solitude

#49: The Balance of Iambic's Pentameter
Am I chasing a ghost, without the cape?
Or have I succumb to man's preferred taste
This being may not appear brightly clear
But these two eyes shall never, from her, steer
In an Eastern bath, she would have arose
Gently drying off her Malaysian skin
To clothe in a silk Japanese plaid robe
Planning my and her day that we shall spend
Intelligence and a swift sharpened tongue
She shall very intricately possess
To those outsiders, she will be loving
But to me, will she consistently test
As God created Eve from Adam's bone
During a remarkable deathly nap
This lady will be a part of my mind
Until my arms around her will be wrapped
Or have I succumb to man's preferred taste
This being may not appear brightly clear
But these two eyes shall never, from her, steer
In an Eastern bath, she would have arose
Gently drying off her Malaysian skin
To clothe in a silk Japanese plaid robe
Planning my and her day that we shall spend
Intelligence and a swift sharpened tongue
She shall very intricately possess
To those outsiders, she will be loving
But to me, will she consistently test
As God created Eve from Adam's bone
During a remarkable deathly nap
This lady will be a part of my mind
Until my arms around her will be wrapped

#48: A Ballad's End
You smile and I smile back at you
To be polite and respectful
But as the night falls, the heat comes
While we engage in the dreadful
A fire burns when I see you
From across that vast distant street
Knowing that should be me right there
Making that torn heart skip a beat
My time is when the sun will sleep
But our shared time is deceit
How can I enjoy you at night
But in the day be so discrete?
A year and a half this happened
My feelings cease to vary
These rendezvous cannot be right
Because my heart is quite wary
How can you treat him in this way?
I wouldn't appreciate it
But I am doing the same thing
Which, to me, makes it more legit
Our friends have not the slightest clue
As to the secret tryst we have
Though that lone mutual person's
Anxiety we must both salve
He has been victim for awhile
It's time to get him out the dark
Yes, it probably will hurt him
With love, he's a fish among sharks
I cannot take this anymore
These urges I have to append
Tomorrow, my brother will know
That I'm sleeping with his girlfriend
To be polite and respectful
But as the night falls, the heat comes
While we engage in the dreadful
A fire burns when I see you
From across that vast distant street
Knowing that should be me right there
Making that torn heart skip a beat
My time is when the sun will sleep
But our shared time is deceit
How can I enjoy you at night
But in the day be so discrete?
A year and a half this happened
My feelings cease to vary
These rendezvous cannot be right
Because my heart is quite wary
How can you treat him in this way?
I wouldn't appreciate it
But I am doing the same thing
Which, to me, makes it more legit
Our friends have not the slightest clue
As to the secret tryst we have

Anxiety we must both salve
He has been victim for awhile
It's time to get him out the dark
Yes, it probably will hurt him
With love, he's a fish among sharks
I cannot take this anymore
These urges I have to append
Tomorrow, my brother will know
That I'm sleeping with his girlfriend
