Chapter 52


Not Complicated

It is not complicated

It is simply fear

Fear of rejection

Love causes many a tear


For we never feel equal

We never feel we are a peer

Rejection cuts so deep

Even the slightest sneer


When Cupid shoots his arrow

He misses the one we hold dear

He laughs as into our heart

He shoves then twists a spear


The fear of rejection grips us

Crushing our minds tiny sphere

Is it ever what is inside of us

Or only to use our veneer


To the one we love

We try to make their heart steer

As they see the direction is us

Away from us they violently veer


It is not complicated

As it seems to appear

It is fear of rejection

It is simply fear of fear

Nobody
