Pythagoras Theorem
me you and she
a b and c
obviously a very wrong triangle
but right from a mathematician's angle
I never thought you'd ever doubt
my loyalty my faithfulness
when things do go wrong
nothing's ever too strong
ignored all my valid points
my explanations, of no use
she and I -the furthest joints
you ignored the hypotenuse
the distance between us
was the longest one there
for your information
it was sum of our squares
The line that connects us
is upright and straight
whilst it was your nexus
that brought us the fate
When you accused me
I lost all the hope
connecting erroneously
you built a slippery slope
this triangle's killing me
please set me free
you let her go and
and please let us be
trust me my dear
it's getting too much to bear
things will just be fine
if we're back to just one line!

I had to reread it to let it sink in (was never good with mathematics to start with) but once I got it, I was in awe... still am :-)
This is so clever and creative and at the same time mysterious... who/what is the she?
Great ink!!!

Welcome Duende! Thank You for your visiting with me and generous appreciation. Am glad you enjoyed it.... trust me neither was I good at maths.. and I mentioned it at the footnote-- a fictitious/imaginary solution to a non-existent problem... I was thinking about the theorem for some reason then points started coming to mind and the result is above...I wish there was some mystery...oops!!
Thank you once again!

You're welcome!
Well... existent or non-existent, you leave it up to the imagination of the reader to envision the 'she' in your poem, hence the mystery ;-)
For someone who wasn't good at maths, you nailed it in this one!

awwe.. thank You! :-)
well it ain't poetry if nothing's left to the reader's imagination is it? and I tried to convey an imaginary triangle (my partner's imagination/perception) that's turning her friend into the third angle/end of the triangle... Thank you once again for your high praise!

Awwe Thanks my dear bro! No worries, I have yet to fully appreciate many of your gems bro, and this one I posted in very short time after my other one, so it's easy to miss one /get distracted by other.
Your presence always makes me smile ☺!

Very clever - never seen a love triangle played with quite like this. And what makes this so brilliant is just how 'slap you in the face' obvious the idea is...gorgeous simplicity most miss...'cept you!
