Title: The Opposite of Love
Post by: ajingi on June 09, 2004, 05:48:20 PM
The Opposite of Love

If hate is not the opposite of love

If indifference is,

then I love them not at all.

And that would explain why bad news

does not surprise me.

Though I try to feign surprise to conceal

that I am merely skilled,

After long practice in the things

you say at times like these.

When any care I had crumbled to dust,

long ago.

When they are dead to me,

or I to myself.

Despite the warmth of the flesh

the moistness of breath.

After pain evolves

to no pain at all

You look for even a spark

of revenge tasting sweet,

But the dish lies cold

so long untouched

That I can say I rejoice not

in their pain.

But I leave them to it

and the warmth of its flame.
