So Idealistic...

She thought she knew love

She though love was being best friends
being able to share
anything
everything
doing things together

She believed...

That once love was given
and returned
Acceptance experienced
that it would remain the same

Now...

Love is not the same
All has changed

No longer
is it viable
to share anything
and everything
some things are now taboo
to do together

She...

Must learn
to do things on her own
cultivate her interests
alone
celebrate holidays
without him

Reluctant was she
to live
so much without him

Afraid...

They would loose
common ground
Their worlds
would become
too different
And their love
would be
lost within the ether
of neither here nor there...

Drowned in indifference

Yes, too idealistic
She now struggles
with the reality
of love
