Antidote Poem by Doris Cornago

Antidote



Loving another one too much is
Also truly loving one's self
Knowing what you need to
Survive, give your all
Hoarding every tiny
Bit as antidote
To future
Pain and
Loneliness
Not walking on
Clouds in blissful
Dreaming, barefoot on
Jagged stones cutting your
Skin, taking the dissensions
Repercussions of honest arguing
Being you, growing up in wide-eyed
Wonder of this new emotion sprouting

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Do you love too much that you forget to leave some for yourself? The unseen danger is that you've exposed yourself for your own self-annihilation. Recognize what is self-love and how you can save yourself.
COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Learn from every relationship and stop predicting or over-projecting. A woman's happiness is not gratified by his prowess in bed but by the patience by which he overextends himself. There is so much truth in the saying, little things mean lot. Know this, gents, and be the conquering, swashbuckling, whip-wielding hero in your old lady's heart. :)

@Truly yours, you misinterpret, I've cared so much I've forgotten who I am.
