Feast or Famine

There is a dark cloud that
hangs over her like a shroud
while keeping  her chilled
As her longings are not filled
Misty memories of what she once had
Serve to make the situation bad
Love has become an unwelcome storm
And comparisons only do it harm
Love must be nourished for it to thrive
But it takes two to make it survive
A classic Jeckyll and Hyde existence
Makes it too difficult to go the distance
To live  in the mode of feast or famine
A prelude to a relationship that can't win

etw

So many caught in these... and so many divorces. The only winner is the poet.
