Every Gal's Wish

"Stay me with flagons, comfort me with apples: for I am sick of love."
~ King Solomon

***

Hopelessly Loved

To love and be loved in return
A most wondrous gift

To love and not be loved
A most tragic fate

To be loved and not love
A most fortunate luck

To be the less loving
A fate so fortunate
Yet so tragic

For only in reciprocation
Lies the wondrous
Gift

Of you
Of me
Of us

But

If a choice
Was forced
Upon

Me

Then

Dear lord

Let me be loved
More than I deserve

Let me be
Hopelessly loved

Let me be
The less loving

Always.
