Needy people are impossible to love. In my opinion they really expect more of themselves and that need will never be fulfilled by anyone else. We're all just "average", my friend. In fact, we're all just piles of dirt. One pile of dirt can't look at another and proclaim, "I'm better dirt than you!" But, if by some twist of fate or chance one pile of dirt may contain more or better nutrients than another, it will only become evident in the things that grow there. Some ground is good only for bearing thistles and briars while other ground may be suitable for flowers, fruits and vegetables. It's what we inwardly contain and produce as a result of it that matters, not outward appearances. Just my thoughts. Bless, F.

Ah, yes, Unrequited Love, I guess we've all been the "What I'm Not" to the "One We Want," and maybe even Vise Versa ...it sucks. ...But on the bright-side, it is the vice of verses for poets ...bad joke :)

Thanks JD not a bad joke but a cosmic one. I appreciate the read and comment.
The logic of the poetry my good friend. So honest, so true. I tell the young folks. Before you get marry. Live with the person Soren. You may hate their ways. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.

Thank you dear friend for your read and kind comments.
A great play of words here Soren.
Also, a great take on relationships. Relationships are forged for mutual reinforcement. So if one is made to feel deficient in it, then its time to bring it to a close.
Very well stated.
It is her loss in my opinion. She wants something more because of what...she is better than anyone? Whatever...those who think they are better are nothing compared to those who truly are. Goodbye is the perfect greeting for her.
This is so above average. I love it. Peple need to take the time to get to really know someone before they say anything. You've said all that so cleverly and well.
People are often shallow and cruel; and because they only see on the surface level, they deny themselves something so much deeper. It doesn't help that society promotes beauty that is only skin deep. This was succcint and to the point and is something to which we can all relate. Well done.

Thank you so much for your review and insightful comments
I understand this so much. Those who seek perfection are going to be disappointed. Not one of us is without flaws. Those who look for the faults in others should take a long hard look at themselves. Some can only focus on the imperfections and miss out on the attributes. Nice piece of brevity Soren.
