Love Poem: Love

Love

In desperation they claw 
too impatient to wait for one above all others
Recklessly tearing apart a whole for crumbs
Tasting aimlessly at any other

Thoughtless for the one 
before their own
salvaging leftovers post tug of war
only taking while staking a claim for 
self not the other

Minds eye will always wander
Unhappy while happy just like 
every other
Luck will let loose those untrue
Until that day comes left 
stuck in the mud they are 
but like others

Take care and thought 
for the one that trumps all
Or choose mediocre and 
end up failing and flailing 
floundering love not love
faking it like all the others
