The One

The time to find the one
has already passed for most.
The one is always
the first one.

The one is always
the one
whom tramples the hardest
into your soft heart.
But you don’t care.
Losing her would be worse.

The one is always
the one
who is so great
that nobody else
could ever replace him or her
and just being next to him
makes you feel like you are constantly
bragging and showing off.

Attraction with the one
is so ravenous
just a touch is enough.

The one is always
the one who carries on talk
as if the words had already been written.

Love is not the only mix
that makes the one special.
It is also the ego.
It is the attraction;
the excitement;
the brainless motives;
the thoughtless humiliation;
the careless pain;
the blindness to how the one uses you;
the ignorance of how the one cuts you deeply
and doesn’t care and doesn’t see it
because the one is so messed up
that he or she could never treat you right.

But most special about the one
is the negligence of the abuse
that she causes you, and you take it
like it is your only life
and you could never live without the pain
and the suffering
that comes from her
because you are stuck to her
so tightly
that the only thing
that could ever pull you apart
is God.
