Did We Ever Love? Poem by chikondi mandala
Did We Ever Love?
He says...
I'm the reason why his falling,
I am the reason why its not working,
The reason why His breaking,
The reason why His breaking,
Why His angry, frustrated and feels betrayed.
...and I say...
His the reason why I love myself the way
I do because He couldn't do it better.
The reason why I'm more confident
Because I now know my capabilities.
The reason why I wear that slim fit dress
And not worry about disgusting HIM with
My 'love handles' so He says.
The reason why I have connected with my guy friends
Because I don't have Him organising my friend list for me.
The reason why am happy,
Because I have finally found myself.

Beautiful depiction of loss of fascination and self-realization in an unhealthy relationship - distress in the bliss of love, well articulated and insightfully penned from the heart with conviction. A motivational piece of poetry capable of empowering people in similar situations. Thanks for sharing Chikondi. Please read my poem THE OBSESSIVE AGONY OF LUST.
