Don Quixote

One-sided and impossible. What do I even want? Friends should be happy for their friends.

he's a friend. 

a funny, cheerful, 

warm, and kind friend. 

somehow, he's my friend too. 

i don't feel anything rose-coloured for him. 

i make myself believe.

i have to. otherwise, well,

i'd create a triangle. 

i wish i had never walked down 

this one-way street. 

if i turn back now, i'll be crushed. 

forgotten. 

his touch tastes bittersweet. 

like eve in the garden, 

i forget he's a forbbiden fruit,

that i'll never ever have.

i like the way you relate the poem to don quixote because of his funny and cheerful ways and his simple ideas on life. I know how you feel regarding the triangle aspect, i have had that for a while with my best friend and his wife. it hurts at first but then there will come a time that there is acceptance that it is a different thing with you though i like the last stanza...

like eve in the garden,
i forget he's a forbbiden fruit,
that i'll never ever have.... yes to avoid confusion and a wrong thing but then sometimes emotion overflows that logic is set aside. this i can fully understand. thanks for a wonderful piece.

Haha, yeah, Quixote tried to fight impossible things.

It's a weird combination of feelings I have, that's for sure. Thanks for reading and leaving a wonderful comment!x

i remember him and his horse whom he considers more than an animal but a friend. you are very much welcome and remember what he did to the woman he love the craziest thing ever just to prove his love for her.
