Schizophrenic Sentiment (Oh Love!!)

Fighting  before  and  after  Sexing

Ignored  for a  minute,  in  the  next, Texting

 Sweating  bout’  Blocked Calls,  while  reminiscing

Forgiving  yet  never  forgetting,  savoring  misery

Forgetting  how -come  deeds  were  ever  even   forgiven?

 

Nevermore  are  promises  broken  swiftly   from  sticking

Sick  to  the  stomach,  from  all  this  grieving, misgivings 

Believing  it  better  to  suffer  thru  discreetly,  enduring  pain

Counseling  sought,  watching  soap opera  offerings,  repeatedly

Staging  one  act  plays  in  front,  of  select  audiences  for  approval

 

Talking  down  significant   others’  like  blowing  out  candle-lit  flames

Putting  posts  on  social  media  about  anniversaries  never  consummated

Anticipating  what-ifs  instead  of  seeing  what’ s  not  romantically  relevant

Irreverent  to  feelings  being  caught  or  misplayed,  made  in  the  shade  

You  won  is  all  that  remains,  gaming  on  emotions  put  on  for  display

 

Tears  fall  throughout  loves’  coldest  winter,  shrouding  seasons  of  decline

Founded  on  unattainable  notions,  fought  out  in  mental  plus  spiritual  confines

Earth, Wind  &  Fire  are  the  reasons  that  impact  our  loving  lost  frames  of  time

There  can be  no  recovery  while constantly  haunted  by  a  schizophrenic  love  sick  mind !
