Poem -
Left Behind
A hand stretches out seeking a guiding lightÂ
At this moment he is frozen in timeÂ
Wanting nothing more to begin anewÂ
Still stuck back with regretsÂ
His soul is in limbo tooÂ
With love etched on his mindÂ
She is locked in his memoryÂ
In infinity on highÂ
How could this have happened?Â
Did he miss the signs ?
This witch promised the worldÂ
Now he is cursed for decades down the lineÂ
Hoping one day a true loveÂ
Will release him from his state of despairÂ
To enjoy a longing that will last through all the yearsÂ

Nah, not this guy, Rock!
My wife walked away from our 22-year marriage in 2015 without so much as looking back.
After that, I've no use at all for an eros type of love.
Are you aware that there are seven—count 'em, seven—different types of love?
1) There's eros—I mentioned that one already.
2) There's familial love, the love reserved for family, parents and children.
3) There's agape love, a perfect love such as our savior has for His children.
4) Add Philia love—the love we share with our friends,
5) Ludus love—which is playful or uncommitted love (the kind of "love", or lust, if you prefer, that I practice now) or more overt flirting, seducing, and conjugating. The focus is on fun, and sometimes also on conquest, with no strings attached.
6) Pragma love is a kind of practical love founded on reason or duty and one’s longer-term interests. Sexual attraction takes a back seat in favor of personal qualities and compatibilities, shared goals, and making it work.
And last, but by no means least;
7) Philautia is self-love, which can be healthy or unhealthy.
And there you have it.
Love is a complicated emotion indeed.
Nicely penned, Rock.
It's been a pleasure.
