Cursed by Love

Cursed by Love

He fell in love with her, like he knew he would

Now he's second guessing his intelligence

Cold logic and reasoning was his foundation

Now he feels alone and exposed to this childish

Emotional black hole; this miasma that decays

The fabric of reality-- to deluded gilded confusion

that has taken hold of his weak breathless longing

And tortures the imagination with thoughts

Of perfect endings, and romantic resolutions

but in reality it can be the path to suffering;

How love unravels even the strongest of the

Black hear-ted solitary vagabonds like him

 taking hold like momentum and gravity

Moving that spool of silken thread downward

Down the marble corridors of ‘fools’ gold’

and to ill fated hope based on nothing but hope

Magic and wine and fairy dust tales weaved 

 sold as greeting cards in the land of oz

Too bad he can't believe in happy endings

And can’t mould reality as easily as god

Shaping wet clay into undeniable beauty

Damn he still can't believed it happened

how could he fall in love so easily?

And cursed himself with glee- madness 

that can never survive the light of reality

hello sis, thanks for amazing comment, and yes I agree with you completely...what can you say about love; it is virtually  inexhaustible as a topic and beyond powerful as an emotion;  some say that love isn't even an emotion at all, but a principle...I think agape love is a principle that comes from God, and to be honest I haven't made up my mind if the other manifestations of love are a principle or emotion...lol  yes I like the picture a lot,  google images all the way....

Flower thank you my sweet friend for sweet comment, yes this is a somewhat gloomy and syrupy poem I've written here though some of  the imagery and phrasing it contains,is interesting but has really  little to do with my outlook on love at the present time. I must have been having a lousy enough day when I spawned this one, but I love your comment and appreciate it as well, have a nice evening....cheers

Chris…Sometimes love stabs the heart and possesses your psyche in twisted ways.  Yes, I certainly have learned much by what I have suffered.  Yet, I pursue love with every sense I possess…

thanks Lily Mae, love is forever; like energy it can only be grounded never can it be destroyed....this is an 'old' write, I vaguely can recollect the inspiration behind it to be honest, it just blew into my mind one find day, and I really have to go over the thing to fully understand it, lol...I prefer just to wait for another one to pop into my brain than doing that...it is very dangerous to thing to think that anything I write is founded in real life events, just saying Lily Mae... 'mostly' I write for personal amusement and for 'practice' because one day I hope to be a really good poet, and thanks for encouragement....have great evening.
