Love's Mystery

You started like a pin prick to my heart,
          an intravenous bloodline to remorse-
Drowning in starvation, I played a part, 
  my heart and mind on a parallel course. 

        There’s a bed to be made and one to sleep, 
you chose which one fate has given with ease-
  A bag of silver for lies that I keep,
my veins wither as my pleasure does cease. 

     One thousand wars, two thousand more to come,
change comes regular like goodbye seasons-
            Complicated and jaded I feel numb,
disappointment comes with all your reasons. 

                     Love’s mystery has become like cancer-
                     an enigma of faith...needing answers.
