Love

am I in love with You,
or the idea of You
i am pleased with the trouble of longing for You.
O Friar!
don’t give me medication
that my destruction lies within
the drops of the poison you will give.
what is harder to do?
to fight for the one you love,
or to try to forget the one you must not.
both are difficult
but not knowing which one to choose is the biggest conundrum.
how do I love You?
neither with my heart, nor with my mind.
mind forgets,
and heart stops.
I love You in this lie world, with my true love.
