She’s got the bug for him
the way we had for her.
I say had
a man can’t keep longing
for the impossible
without going nuts,
life needs to go on,
as U2 put it,
“with or without her.”
A lesson she may need
to learn the hard way.
Even a goddess
doesn’t always get
what she wants
or needs or thinks
she deserves,
She must eventually
settle for something
or someone she can
live with.
A broken heart may still beat,
yet if you don’t
stich it back together,
each beat brings
only pain and misery,
the goal of love it to find bliss,
to find someone who will
be there in the morning
after spending the
night,
rather than the Cinderella man,
who must flee her bed by midnight
before his whole life
turns
into the pumpkin patch
he carved this love affair from,
a jack-o-lantern more
frightening than sad.
