Solve For Ex

Math Doesn’t Lie

Amidst our love’s equations,
ex remained an undetermined variable.

Throughout all of our mathematical madness, we both had some tough problems. 

Words heard upon deaf ears, they were just words after all as we both discovered. 

Good intentions may have been their shadows, shadows require light and die within darkness.

Early on we practiced addition, as we put ourselves together. Resulting in something bigger than that of our own. 

Physical attraction our common denominator, never did our numerators ever line up. 

Our individual struggles we battled, quickly multiplying. Neither one of us acquainted with zero so the trauma quickly outnumbered the love. 

Resentment a product, dividing our atoms of desire into millions of shattered pieces, as we tore each-other apart. 

It quickly became overly apparent, we weren’t solving for an undetermined variable but rather accepting, ex was referring to both of us!  

Math doesn’t lie.

“the trauma quickly outnumbered the love.”
One should never underestimate the power of trauma. Neither the power of love.
The last few lines say that you’re taking the responsibility too. No blames, just the 
difficulties of life, I suppose.  Take care, Rob.    B

Thank you Bernadete, I feel like we all have a love that got away. I still have her name tattooed on my arm, and my wife doesn’t care because she knows that woman was responsible for the majority of my growth as an adult and has shaped me into the man I am today. I would be lying if I told you, I haven’t thought about how that relationship would look if I was capable of being who I am today back then. As much as I know, we can only control today and tomorrow I find myself grasping to the past wanting more answers and to make sure I don’t forget anything that I’ve already taught myself :) . 

as always I greatly appreciate your support and want to thank you for taking the time to read and leave such a lovely comment.
