Foolish Love
I'm confused at their imperfections,
But I notice they're working it out.
What I have taught has served them well.
And to lay the course is mine no more.
But to walk alongside and observe calmly.
Seeing the imperfection of the path
And see them slowly approach obstacles, without my input.
And finding their own ways,
Together.
I can walk my own paths too.
And accept what the day brings.
﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌
And kill my every self, which clings on to you,
Dragging you along with me.
I renounce any ownership of your love
I will delight in a pinch of tender kisses sprinkled over my face.
And fall, feel, and falter lightly so as to not disturb your beauty and
perfection.
