Entangled Loves

Fragile is the border between two competing loves - The one avowing friendship and the one consisting of A passion deep, abiding, filled with longing for a dream Which sadly is one-sided; or so that it would seem. The offer of a friendship in replace of love repressed Is at first a consolation, meant to ease a heart depressed. But a friendship's only pure if the border is maintained; If platonic love thus offered is not by the other stained. Two types of love entangled must in one outcome result - In the compromise of boundaries, making trusting difficult. To keep a friendship healthy, filled with trust and joy also, Honour both the love and border - let one be, the other grow! February 2016
