Keen..
What is to be in love with?
If one has in no way
Experience its appeal
Nor its pungent disparagement,
Can it bypass you?
Does it take into version your desire?
It has in no way secured a momentary look
My way—no care has wrack my spirit.
I am the disorder of adore.
Predestined to devastate, not take pleasure in
I rupture the ties of enthusiasts
With my interruptions,
Nevertheless in no way do they last.
I am not kindness.
I am not love.
Me? I am abhorred.
Contempt for my indifference
Furthermore terrified missing.
