The Love You Show Me
Love,
as you show me,
is a game
played
by two souls
fascinated
by it's own follies.
Two hearts
indulging
in fantasies,
tired of being
lonely.
A shame,
unrecognized pain
in denial,
desperately
lied for.
Fate
sealed
by bodily fluids
in a moment of heat.
Your right
to disrespect me,
behave badly,
then expect
to be treated like
a baby.
It's lost sanity.
Compromises reached
for free.
Values exchanged
for pain.
Martyrdom
packaged as gain.
It's emotionally
enforced slavery,
a blood sucking
leech,
spiritual greed.
A promise
sold on the streets
cheaply,
an affliction of mind,
a disease of humanity.
It's sacrifices made
hoping
one of us is happy.
Faith
in a faithless feeling.
Love,
as you show me,
is depravity,
a mortal being's
excesses in
immorality.

security is what an insecure person needs; insecurity is anathima to love! :-) now, that's classic catch-22 situation, yeah? :-)
To know someone is waiting for you is not love. It is fear that no one acknowledges your existence. That you don't count. :-))
'angels' is a romanticised version of weak-willed humans, or outright evil. Hitler was somebody's angel too, remember? :-))
compromise? so what? he...he... nothing. Every individual has to live their own life. Or atleast justify it in their own eyes. :-))

Yes....love is all of those things!
But it is also so much more....
It is the security..that u matter to someone!
It is to come home to an person who you know is waiting for you!
It is to bring angels to this earth..together!
yes.....it demands compromise, but then so what?

I would be shocked but for the 'as you show me' part! Interesting. Thought provoking. Sad too, because it sometimes takes a long time to realise that that is not really love!

wow ! Nicely put. I wonder...sometimes about *love* - this could be one line of thought...which, well... would make me a cynic of love...coz the way you put it.. it is. Truth - one of the hues. bam!
sad.
On the way to your other blogs..
