Lessons in Love
It was love at first sight.
The kind you only hear about from sappy,
overly-happy friends who have
the quintessential perfect relationship.
I never believed in such rosy and putrid
romantic portraits of the way most think we
must live when we hit our mid-20s.
Yet here I was and she, as well.
The heart feels, then demands and our
unconscious self obliges.
How was I to know it wouldn't be enough?
How was I know it wouldn't make a difference?
All good things must come to an end, I suppose.
In love, our heart can lead us on the right path
for all the wrong reasons.
I learned the hard way that we must listen
to our gut's instinct instead.
It takes a much bigger man than I am
to listen to such advice.
