If Yours are Good, Does that Make Mine Bad?
Insipid words of a selfish love
Negate the truth within a deadened heart;
The taste left behind - sour on my tongue.
Earning the unconditional - a price I will
Not pay anymore, to anyone.
Torn by illusions, delusions:
Indignation won’t let go; though
Obligations come with questions;
No end justifies the means.
So, am I wrong? Does it make you right?
Thank you for reading!
Questions to ponder - or I invite you to answer in the comments: Does one’s good intentions cancel out another’s? Are consequences of those actions then inconsequential? Should a person be held responsible for their good intentions?
