Cupid Karma

Stupid you,Stoic me
You moved fast,i stood glued
Still and Passive


Hardened by my pride
detached but committed
I'm snail,she's cheetah


Eventually ,I'll awake
Lofty hope she carried
scary wish i pursued


Alas,i did rise
but her wait had lapsed
the cheetah had lost its limbs


Indifferent to my plight
she charted a new course
the tide favor me not

Aloof,i think out loud
I used to be here


Now,the scales have tipped
But brown,I'm ready now
Yet,your ego fails me
