The End of Love |
When I think about you |
I think it’s all been said before |
The words rang true |
But what were they for? |
You were a small disappointment |
Careless hand on the thigh |
Sweet inferred words |
That were never implied |
Who could frame the fearful asymmetry |
Between lust and love? |
Is God the synapse or the thought |
Caught between what you want and what you bought? |
Are you the final thread |
That binds the world to me? |
Baby is that all you want to be? |
The end of love is |
A terraced grief that’s like a drip down a mountain |
That fills an ocean |
I’ll carry you over the water, you grow heavier |
With every step |
Until you drag me down as sure as Ophelia’s dress |
Did you grant me existence |
When a random thought of me |
Shot through your mind |
Like a wasp right through a web? |
You clothed me in life |
But my garment strangles me |
Like Desdemona struggling with fortune |
And seeking her lover’s eyes |
Is a mayfly tenure the best that you can offer me? |
You’re so wisely absent, from past and future |
But to me you’re nothing but a suture |
To prevent their blending |
And yet my heart seems to be rending now |
The longer I sit in my lonely room |
Honey you’re the only lover that I believe in |
The end of love is |
A guarantee that no will ever look |
Away from me |
Though I dance with the dolls |
No one else comes close |
To how, to how |
How you love me |
The end of love is |
A deus ex machina |
But ain’t that better |
Than a deus |
So much more humane |
So much more remains |
After the play is over |
The end of love |
The end of love |
The end of love |
