When you look at me
What do you see?
Branches random,
Unchosen tandem?
Nothing clever.
Space distress
Of leaves and mess?
Unlike attraction,
More like distraction!
Whatever!
Why on earth,
of all the space,
Did God place
you here?
Wish you could just leave,
Whenever!
But we are stuck.
Like glue, we are stuck!
Perhaps a wind may unabate
And maybe we can separate!
Forever!!
I am strong
Without you.
I don’t need you.
Never
Will I need you,
Whatsoever.
{And so the big wind
It did come.
And so it did come unabate.
But it did more than separate.}
Oh nooo!!! Hold tight!!!
Don’t let go!!!!
Please,
Don’t let go.
And don’t go.
Stay.
And don’t go away
Ever!!!
“Love lives in the myriad of imperfection and thrives because of its ability to prevail despite its inability to prevail perfectly.” ~ Alexandria Sage
