Another stinky poem....for all of you who have good fortune in love, count yourselves lucky. :.)  

The Cycle

"Loosen your grip, just let yourself go.
Let yourself love, and let it show."
My feelings are gone, it's been too long,
I have no emotion, for I am strong.

Once before, I did indeed adore,
But I was left, with a breast so sore.
I took my chances, and lost my bet,
I cursed love, through tears rainy wet.

One can always learn from the past,
I told myself that this love was my last.
But you arrived and demanded attention,
Required me to see from another dimension.

I was confused, unwilling to commit,
You begged, cajoled and threw a fit.
"Please", you cried, "You're secular bliss"
You sent an "I love you", sealed with a kiss.

But my heart ignored my cognitive mind,
With dreams of hands and souls entwined.
I opened the gate, and ushered you inside,
Stirred long-dead emotion, sat back for the ride.

Suddenly unsure, you push me away,
Despite silent screams, pleas for you to stay.
This was childsplay to you, a simple game,
I had been a pawn, my presence you now disdain.

Again I gambled, again I was wrong.
Love and I, together do not belong.
Free from my cage, I had flown above,
Despairs arrow has again murdered me, the dove.

"Loosen your grip, just let yourself go.
Let yourself love, and let it show."
My feelings are gone, it's been too long,
I have no emotion, for I am strong.

Sounds like you found out that love doesn’t come easily Vreni. I can really feel the pain and the emotions that you put into this work. Well written and full knowledge.  Good job.
