temporarily unhappy

Love sucks.
Not the warm and fuzzy kind of course.
But this kind –
this love sucks.

It is the onesided kind
the forsaken, futile attempt
to make it work
against all odds.

It is the love
that came unexpected
uncalled for, unfitting
- timing is everything, you know

Love sucks
even when I see it in your eyes
especially when
I see it there, too

when I realize
it is not onesided
or at least not entirely
but our timing' not right

another time
another year
maybe
but now?

Now won’t work
not for me
not for you
not for them

Love sucks –

and timing's a bitch, too....
