Look Closer!
Love lies bleeding
Yelping incessantly
In its predominantly
Narcissistic
Grief
Love
Is
Torturous in its
Truth
Love does not guarantee for-
Ever afters
Comparatively
Unfailing, it
Never reveals its true
Tenacity

Hey Wolfie - thanks for your comments - I battled with the idea of letting the reader discover the acrostic themselves & wish I'd stuck to my instinct which was to not guide - I posted it that way on my other page & enjoyed the response when people figured it out! - I'm still learning to trust my instincts! But that's what life is about eh - learning!! Yes the 1st & 3rd verse are a deliberate contradiction as I think 'Love' is contradictory - & the LLC ....... I didn't want it to be 'about' someone - more about the nature of love - but I did have a person in mind who I was referring to. Thanks again for taking the time to comment - much appreciated x
