A Study in ContradictionsA Poem by CourtniReneeWe All Want What We Can't HaveNever surrender freedom for the safety of love. You will spend your days lying on a bare mattress. Your feet will press against panelled walls, watching patterns on the window from fingerprints and heavy breathing. Never surrender love for the spark of freedom. You will sit in threadbare recliners and listen to silence, radio static and crime dramas will be your living room company on Sunday evenings. Either way you will be disappointed. © 2016 CourtniRenee |
