Paradox

Love feels good:
Yet why
Do I feel
Strange unease?

Stray uncertainty
Comes around
Rain in the breeze
Why do I fear?

This paradox
Confusion limps
Will my heart heal?
Is vain cheer enough?

Love brings chaos
Of some sort
Uncertainty dilutes
What did I miss?

Beware despair
Disguised as false hope
No ecstasy here
Insecurity oozes

Broken with pain
Change feels strange
Even the air
Feels entanglement
