Passion Fails

foolishness

By Faith LongPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

She is selfish and she is cruel.

She is history and she is a fool.

But so are you, I guess.

And then me, too.

For whatever reason the sun still rises,

And my compassion for you, also.

But your heart and mind are caught.

Caught in the middle of time and space.

Open, huh?

True love, per say.

Not codependency- I get it.

Then what?

Because, the thought still lingers

Deep in my mind.

The feelings of jealousy, no;

Just confusion.

But my main concern, is not for you,

But for me.

Because what she does to you,

You do to me.

So my heart and passion fails me,

Again.
