Our Love

By GreekPhilosopher

My love for you is milk.
Pity, then, that you're lactose intolerant.
Your love for me is a sweater.
Damn, it's a sunny day.
My love for you is a market place.
But you're agoraphobic.
Your love for me is ice.
But, baby, I'm a pyromaniac.

Our Love Is Great.
But It'll Never Work.
Maybe.

    Maybe, it is an art lost with us!!! Ever feel like it isn't as it was, and will never be again? Maybe I have drank too much, but, how I love the Milk!

    It's always those, 'What if''s' that fuck things up when really circumstances should be grabbed by the collar and given a try. Brilliant piece.

    Hehehe. She still teasing then? Anyhoo, i loved the poem; full of Gumpisms, those concise, simple statements that convey what most words cannot. Good to see one from you again.
