The End of Love


The end of what never began is where I found myself.

The aches and pains, the tears of rain,

too much to bear.

I can’t contain the strain of knowing this is how it’s always been.

I’m not surprised, but it still makes me cry and to make it worse crying doesn’t help.

It just fills me with agony of the unjust kind,

like slavery, mentally capturing my mind.

Where’s the divine intervention to suppress the tension,

not to mention the depression leading only to regression.

Get it right, get it straight, this itself is twisted fate,

undeserved, they may say but it is mine to contend until the end,

when bitterness will be outdone by the conventions of tenderness.

replaced even more with the reality of sadness.

6 Months of Love 19 Years Later


I have loved him and I love him
It hurts to know such entanglement exists
Stifling, unbearable, I cant breath
But I’d have it no other way.

Is this healthy?
Is it heavenly?
Is this good for me?

The weight is heavy, but I don’t want it to end
I am feeling
I am alive
Deep breaths will have to suffice.

This friendship
never lovers
never separated
A deep connection
I can’t explain it

I live for this feeling of life
I scream
even though I cry at the loss
I know it’s purpose is not lost

My heart is crying
not in anger or in sadness
but in joy and in gladness
19 years in the making.

What feelings will the future bring?

No More Love in Me


There’s no more love left in me
to hide the hurt that I feel
to give me strength for one more day
to help me pass the time away

There’s no more love left in me
to look beyond your faults and see your needs
to close my eyes to your foolish pride
to cover the pain I feel inside

There’s no more love to press one more day
to ignore the feelings of dismay
to deeply breathe and try again
I fear this love has come to an end

Formula for Love


Send me the formula for love

the kind that is so well calculated

there’s no room for spontaneity

because it fits like a glove of the surgical kind.

No explosion, just complete devotion

from one attraction of a mathematical calculation,

complete addition raised to the power

causing elevation of my…

I hope I get it good

and I hope you get it right,

just love in flight.

Is that alright?
