One Sided

 One Sided
(Life’s sweet sour moments)

 

Lopsided, tipped, awry
Wry, not so very funny
Expectations down turning!!
Bleeder crusader lionhearted
Pseudo friendship self-serving
Yet sticking to guns repeatedly
Accepting dished out- patiently
Frustrated burnt hors d’oeuvres
My return serves out of boundary!!
 

Glutton for punishment willy-nilly
Masks often wholesome disarming
Charmer really not so heart warming
After all- should I change, fake
No-my resolute inner self not fading
One swallow does not a summer make
One false encounter can be too many
Tipped scales will level soon favorably
Making merry, my days remain sunny
Refuse to defuse my feel good feel
No false Zen exuding friend can kill
Implacable serene- hanging on to steel will
