In affection, we focus on our beauty
In rejection, we focus on our deficiencies
Perhaps that’s why the world is so harsh
Too many are waiting for their deficiencies to be accepted before they share their beauty
Or need their grievances with one to be compensated before they accept the beauty of another.
Each time we wait for the past to be redressed before
we invest in the future
We are discarding the future in favour of the very past we wish we could leave behind
Thus is the gift of love discarded
And bitterness courted.

Thus, is love lost
