The Fail of Love

I quit yestersday
stopped thinking about it all.
ive had my heart garbaged
too many times.
tossed away, suffocated in a black plastic bag and tied at the top-

i thought
"i stand now before the world a new man, a loveless man, a cold icy bastard- without a care or love in the world"
wretched feeling, who needs it anyway?

throw my towel in, soaked with tears.
wave the white flag, on my sinking ship.
throw up my lonely arms toward the black!
suffocating as Aphrodite takes me away-
down to the curb-a broken man.
