People talk about love in such glorious terms. I suppose it deserves the many accolades. I have, once in a while, experienced the greatness of love.
However, more often, I have experienced the limitations love has placed upon me. How it ties my hands, screws with my head, makes me cry, and makes me feel feelings that make me think I'm better off dead. Love is the thing that has shackled me for life. Love is the thing that makes me chase after it in a treacherous journey interspersed with grief. Love makes me lonely.
I find myself incapable of forgiving love for happening to me. I'm a prisoner in a love trap. I want to go free! I want to go free! I hate these human weaknesses. All for a few soul-inspiring moments that 'make you believe'. Well, truth be told, I prefer the mundane existence of lovelessness. At least it guarantees me constancy, clarity, and my center.
Love. I wrote poetry about it. I experienced its beauty. I fought for its glory in my life. But there's a time when you want to say enough. Enough of this strife. Today is that day for me. I've had enough of this grief-ridden distraction. I've moved on.
