I do not want a partner
Who always keeps the score;
Who always knows which one of us
Owes the other more.
Their counting will be faulty,
With I.O.U.s galore,
And I will end up bankrupt
As I've wound up before.

Clever well worded and with deep meaning as well. Nicely done
Thank you.
You are very welcome
My friend, what a painfully honest piece. Love becomes impossible when affection is transactional and every mistake carries a price. No one truly wins that kind of accounting…someone simply leaves emptied. Powerful work. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
