Not Exactly Love

Something originally about silence soon turned into a short poem on the give and take of a relationship that isn't quite perfect

A falling of sorts into dangerous terrain

So lovely at first until you join the game

Of manipulation and whispered secrets

A pain only ever broken by brief moments of bliss

It's your own choice if all of it is worth it

But maybe loneliness is better than this ache

Author's Note

If it sounds like I've never been in a relationship, it's because I haven't.

By reading this I would never be able to tell that you've never been in a relationship, doll.
It's spot on. It's simple. It works. Love it.
