Love Absolute

About this poem

I wrote this poem a few months back and was inspired to write it when a friend I was interested in pursuing had made it public that they are now in a serious relationship. I put off asking her out or going on any dates because I felt inadequate and would at best be put into the inescapable friend zone at best and pushed aside at worst. I was both scared for myself and didn't want to waste either of our time if I didn't feel good about my chances and would prefer that she spend her time in more fruitful pastures. I don't wish her ill, and only wanted her happiness and felt, ultimately, I couldn't give that to her at this moment in time. more »
