Thread: forgetting love while loving to forget. (language warning)

Do you feel enabled
when he fucks up
his fuck ups?

Do you feel ashamed
when he breaks
his break ups?

Do you hate it
when he speaks
things best left unspoken?

I think I might know
where you went wrong.

The problem with being
too involved
is that you're too involved.

And the problem
with situations being resolved
is that they are resolved.

So, stake your well-being on me,
and see if you can kill a man
with a penny from a tall building.

My dear friend, I tend to say this about your pieces "This is your best. Oh, this is your best". Now I know better to say "This is your best, thus far." And so it is. I love your play on words here, consistant in each stanza until the very last one. The prize, as a wrap up should be.

BRILLIANT!

Glad to be reading more of your work. Love, Laurie

Oh, and I love your title!

Great piece Gal. Only thing I can criticize is "things best left unspoken". It sounds clunky. Otherwise, you've got a keeper here.
