Love's Tragedy
You're full of gifts and vibrance,
Time spent leaves one delighted.
Deep connection -
Sharing thoughts held private,
No trust with most -
They get loud loud silence.
Creating a shroud of mystery,
This one that one
want to be next to me,
Hate the non-committal tendencies,
Wanting stability
while I'm drifting aimlessly.
To love and be loved
deepest by one?
Or by so many?
True love truly has a recipe:
Mixing in our own ingredients
changes the taste
we thought we liked
but after sitting overnight
we throw the whole dish out
after an early morning bite.
Revenge isn't the only one with a dish.
Have you tasted Loves Tragedy?
