Who should be blamed when 

One falls out of love?

Should it be the one who 

Closed her legs for too long?

Or maybe it’s who began noticing 

A younger woman’s thong? 

Could it be both or neither?

Is it love’s fault for not living 

As long as it said it would?

Is it their parent’s fault for 

Curating toxic childhoods?

Who can tame a heart if not in love? 

It’s strong enough to destroy the chains of whatever’s holding it up
