What Has Love Taught You Lately?


Recommended Posts

you meet a woman. you put a seven-inch blade in her hand. you guide her into stabbing it into your chest, through your heart. she holds the blade. that blade is love. some of us have dozens of blade thrusts in our hearts, not all of which have healed. some of us have had that blade twisted one too many times. yet some would argue that the most painful thing a woman can do is to let go of that blade and walk away, leaving you to deal with that wound in your chest alone.

love is a desire and we also know that those not in love

nevertheless desire what is beautiful.

How then do we distinguish

the one in love from the one who is not?

 

the affection of the one who is not, does not come from kindness

but from a habit of appetite

he wants to gratify.

 

While in love he is harmful and unpleasant,

but later when his love is spent

he becomes false to his many promises and oaths.

The payoff comes

when he has a new ruler inside him,

discretion and prudence

instead of love and madness;

he's now different,

When asked to return favors and fulfill promises,

he is ashamed of his past foolishness

and runs away,

forcing the beloved to run after him

like in a game of "hide and go seek."
