MISPLACED LOVE
You’ll know someone is THE ONE
If your heart knocks your ribcage when they’re near
This Sandra says
*
My heart yearns for you alone
My soul craves you, Ekene
She says
*
Anytime I am around you, I feel safe
Don’t you feel same? She wants to know
I nod
*
I love you Ekene, I can die for you
Do you love me too? She asks
I nod
*
Then Kelvin enters the room, bare-chested
And just like that, I unwrap myself from Sandra
Gawd! My heart is racing.

There’s so much I can’t wait to find out The texture of your hands on my skin What your kiss tastes like How your face looks when I’m in you,

Together we sat Under a leaking roof Misery, I and a broken heart * Two moons and a quarter Through the clanging of bells And the period of the sleigh

This cracked me up. Sandra is busy seeing her perfect man, whereas her perfect man has eyes only for another man.

September 27, 14:25Wow very insightful. This calls for a deep appreciation of bisexuality and men on dl. U can be married to one person while in love (lust) with another. For gay men its an eternal struggle for balance
