Dalliance

You're not for me,

Can't you see?

This love was only temporary.

 

My new erstwhile,

you can call me vile.

I've been on my own,

since I was a child.

I am dependent on no one.

Relationships are just for fun.

Once I get attached,

I turn and run.

 

I am Ethereal,

I am made of different material.

 

My heart has fallen-

into a state of desuetude.

It has no use.

I don't feel a thing or I do too deeply.

 

I am a body of water,

30 feet deep.

Pulling you in,

and watching you sink.

 

You weren't right for me.

You were full and I was empty.

I was clean and you were messy.

I was soft spoken,

You were ear piercing.

We had no compatibility.

 

You're erratic and overly dramatic.

Rather psychosomatic.

I've made it a bad habit,

Of wanting what is toxic to me.

You are a deadly disease.

I'm quite sure that I should leave.

 

You lash out in anger.

I fancy it better,

when you were just a stranger.

You sought me out.

I took you up,

but you'll never be enough.

I can't say it's not you,

and I can't say it's not me.

I'm never fully satisfied.

I'm never ever happy.
