Eternal Headache

up to you

The eternal Headache

 

Love is the soul's headache,

Affluence

And bankruptcy

In the same firm,

Tormenting the mind

With equivalents

Of children's games

Of 'Loves me, loves me not'.

The daisy petals

Of those childhood games

Are, by love, transformed

Into a graphic chart,

Where each curve

Hints at subtle tales

Of rise and fall

Within each lover's mind

That never could be seen

By light of day.
