Love’s Curse



Love’s Curse

Do you desire the ideal?
Looking for your heart to steal?
Mind and emotions so often colliding
Seems to be an alter ego colluding

So suffer not the little ‘uns but those that rule
Conduct your life until hubris is no longer a ghoul
Then you’re safe you love to think, goddamn fool
Is that a finger from heaven that trips you into the muddy pool?

No regret is the lover’s oath
Yet, behind closed doors alone you’re a naked oaf
No certainties, but accusing profanities
Aimed at the one you know that destroys opportunities

Yes, that mirror is hard to bear
But is it striving for truth, and then your soul won’t tear?
Yet, and yet, a lover’s crash is never clear
There’s perennial doubt, so convince you, the liar’s lair
