Desperation in Acrostic

Posted in poetry by Diamond with tags , , , on April 13, 2008 by diamondjones

Doing whatever it takes
Even if it means compromising myself to
Submit and
Please you
Emotionally drained and making myself sick
Round the clock
And
Tirelessly
In my mind thinking that there is something that will make you love me
Or choose me
Never ceasing to the end, not knowing that it is not meant to be, and that you are not the one for me

When is Love enough?

Posted in diamondisms, love with tags , , , , on April 13, 2008 by diamondjones
When is love enough?
 
dedication
trust
understanding
loyalty
 
when is that enough?
 
sincerity
honesty
openness
transparency
compassion
forgiveness
truly caring about someone’s wellbeing
inseparable
through thick and thin
 
when is that enough?
 
friendship
kinship
partnership
togetherness
camaraderie
having each others back
building each other up
holding each other down
 
when is that enough?
 
never
 
only when you have
competition
stability
money
connections
pull
whats-in-it-for-me
 
mixed with
deception
hidden agendas
cruel intentions
nastiness
secrets
lust
selfishness
neglect, hurt, and pain
 
that which takes the place of love
and makes you feel dead and empty
lonely and barren
burnt and inadequate
unwanted and distant
scared and closed
 
that is when it is finally enough
