You speak of love as though you are done with it.
Anger betrays you; youve only begun with it!
One day youll know where love starts and ends:
Denial and self lies: stage onewe pretend!.
The heart grows suspicious. We wont believe friends.
Next we take blame; The guilt trip descends;
This can be fixedif I just make amends!
Three - we blame others, despite their objections;
Fixes at this stage require perfection!
The harder we grip, the more love grows cold;
Were losing the bond; untying its hold;
Still sifting the ashes for leftover gold!
Speaking in rage we lament our decisions;
Bitter our tirades of loves cruel incision;
Tears bring us less than a moments dilution;
Falling far short of the hearts absolution.
At last we acknowleledge that we played a part.
Destroying the space that once held our heart.
Sooner or later sarcasm will follow;
Embittered laughter that rings in the hollows;
And echos the canyons like ghostly reminders;
Caustic cartoon-speak of days that were kinder;
At last were too tired to mount an attack;
There is after all, no way to go back;
Healing comes not from rage, but the lack!
Both love and hate are equals revealing;
How deep were entangled by all of our feelings.
Its over, its done, when no footprints endure.
Recovery is silent, and so it obscures;
Apathys signal that love has been cured.
