Best Familiarity Breeds Contempt Poems

At human souls
Stripping first the aura

The shiny, pearly shell
To finally bear 
The red, raw meat
That often brings contempt.

Familiarity breeds contempt,
This is true but only as exception,

Just as absence makes the heart grow fonder
Is this the reason couples fight and stray
Seeking their true love way out yonder?
