Love is vexing....


How does one deal with the 'complicated relationship'?
How do you deal with a love that carries burdens ?
I  have no idea,
though,
In many ways,
none of this is really new ground for me.

In my younger days, 
and in other more profane assignations, 
none of this was as 
troublesome as where find myself today. 

 Today the problem is that I love,
Something I never expected.
I Did not look for love, but I found it 
unexpectedly.

In my my younger days,  I was a pig, simply looking for release.
Release is easy enough to secure.
Love is much much more complicated.
Today I am roiling in complications
And I lack the means to fix the problem.
All this is unsettling, vexing, and troublesome.
Is there a solution to this conundrum?

Nothing fits
Nothing makes any sense
Nothing seems resolvable 
But it's where I am.
