go ahead
you can call me a side hustle or a fling
you can call me a second priority or a plaything
but that doesn’t mean i won’t stop loving you
i hold you two in my heart
not as humans
not as friends
not as lovers
but as all three and even more
and as much as i’d love to confess
you two seem so lovely and happy together
and i’m perfectly content watching you two
live your life as pleasantly as possible
so go ahead
you can call me a side hustle or a fling
you can call me a second priority or a plaything
but that doesn’t mean i won’t stop loving you
<3

what is love?
how do we distinguish it from pride's fog?
do we convince ourselves, or are the actions we received what enslaves us?
billions of others in the world, thousands we pass-by every week
and yet we harbour that notion
where only 'one' person is a fit for us
while changing between snug-fitting shoes, daily...?!
it's never a crime to love
it only becomes a crime, when we sell ourselves
cheap,
'love thy self' so as to be able
'to love another',
be trodden-on by others
when we think ourselves, unworthy
of love...
if you deserve better
emancipate yourself and strive
for that better!
I wish you the best, dear poet
