Love's Contradictions

CATEGORY

life

Views: 333

I tell you my story as you listen intently, falling into me evidently; to be embraced and supported rather consequently

I whisper loudly to be heard, stirring in a melting pot of emotions; mixing in every ingredient, brewing this love potion

The attraction of opposites, desirous of a complementary theme; here’s the missing piece of my puzzle, or so does it seem

Taking a small leap of faith, into a faithless conviction; trying to believe in unbelief and there lies the giant contradiction

We follow the pattern of a wondering meanderer, beyond the horizon; as the sunset’s, we find that darkness is our poison

Our feet carry us to the place, we have to crawl beneath; there’s pain and despondency, with gritting and gnashing of teeth

Chasing after instability, for a solid foundation of repose; negotiating terms and conditions, both unable to fully disclose

A silent episodic event, leaves us with greater words to speak; airtight expressions of hopelessness, but yet still we leak

An overindulgence of gratitude, for this undervalued gift; becoming the subjects of ineptitude and then the veil we lift

Moving through cycles of passivity, looking for action figures; idle in the midst of commotion, unable to pull the trigger

We repeat the process, denying our very own repetition; detrimentally changing our minds, never improving our condition

Too much of a bad thing, has us feeling much too good; following a misunderstanding, not minding being misunderstood

Seeking appeasement, for the sake of terminal pacification; sheltering each moment of acceptance, approaching expiration

Acceptance and denial combine to assuage a shifting paradigm; the clock just keeps on ticking, it’s only a matter of time

False pretention and compromise constantly fill the air; continuing down a dead end street, on a collision course with despair

 

 

Committed to an unpalatable existence, with many afflictions; free from being alone, but trapped in love’s contradiction
