A poem about a love triangle that I knew I couldn’t be a part of.
Jungle of Complexity
Lost in the jungle of complexity
Debating whether this should truly be my destiny
To tug on a rope opposed by your life’s responsibility
Strengthened by your mind’s uncertainty
Wondering to myself where that meets leaves me
Every time I say I had enough
I pumped up my mind and toughened my heart
You show me a glimpse of sanity and it’s enough
Is it that old female’s way of thinking?
That I can change him or it
Like a Locomotive driven by the steam
Drive pushing me
That belief that with time
The right lines and rhymes
Determination
Perspiration
Conversation
Temptation
Food for starvation
And enough faith
You will be mine
The more you attempt to elude me
The more infatuated I become with the thought of unity
The feeling is more infectious then a disease
Every vaccination seemingly bringing me to my knee
Irony…
Immunity losing the battle meant to enable the entity
I questioned what really pushes me
Baited like a mouse
Enticed by the sight and the smell of cheese laid on a trap
Or a fly attempting to partake of the venomous sap
Or a Venus flytrap
It was you’re initial interest that even entangled me
It’s funny…
Because once I get what I want
Then I don’t want it anymore
Maybe that’s why I peek around but never pushed through the door
Invisible boundary that keep me away
I want you as long as you don’t want me
And I want to stay because you wish I would go a way
Another complexity
But this time about me
