Loser
To be loved and love at the highest count
Means to lose all the things I can't live without
Let it be known that I will choose to lose
It's a sacrifice, but I can't live a lie
Let it be known, let it be known

Dear E,
First, it’s wonderful to see you this evening! Happy New Year!
Second, the poem lays bare the raw truth, for me, of being willing to give it all up for love and then be disappointed. More times than I’m willing to count. But there’s a lesson in each that I wish I’d retain. Alas.
I adore the quote from St. Augustine and I love how you've put yourself out there in this poem. It’s to the point and outrageously terrific. H🌷

Hullo
This is the poetry I love, it builds razor sharp images swiftly and bares the truth out openly. It's emotional and sharing and exceptionally well written.
Kudos
Thanks for the read.
