Dear love, what happened?
I must admit: I am still bewildered.
One moment we are laughing, basking in the sun's glow, adoring the other's presence.
The next I am weeping, begging for the reason behind being forgotten for two weeks.
Dear love, what happened?
Did I suddenly become expendable?
Or perhaps I was never anything else.
My feelings merely solidified, despite 3 years crawling by.
The beautiful times are more painful than the ugly ones,
Something you can only comprehend in love.
Dear love, what happened?
Why do you choose to torture me now?
I allow myself to be used as an in-between, but why do you need one?
Why am I your emotional whore?
I want to scream, "I am a human,
I have emotions" to remind you that I am not your toy.
But dear love, how can I remind you when you did not know to begin with?
