Love,
Such a foolish thing
And why do they call it 'becoming smitten'
As if Love is like a mitten
where the fingers are always together,
in which it doesn't truly matter what the world's forces enforce,
so long as the beings at the fingers base remain connected
Bonded by the dependence developed over time
Soon the influence of the exterior world diminishes to become impotent,
now solely desperate of each other's body heat
Dependency is built, Trust is built, Love is created
Love,
Such a foolish thing
Mittens become a rarity as the development of gloves arise
Fingers close in enough to sense but yet to feel,
fending for themselves
Salvation of oneself against the potential pain of reality acquires priority,
even at the expense of Love
Independence commences, Greed accumulates, Love flatters vulnerability
