Misery Loves Company

Misery loves company.

So I sat next to her one day,

Upon the park bench,

drenched with the falling rain,

Though she had no umbrella.

I gazed over at her pale face,

Trodden with fresh tear trails.

I whispered in her ear,

“Can you tell me,

how did I lose my love?”

Her eyes washed up from,

The depths of the ocean,

Enchanting blue whirlpools.

“You danced too long in the rain.

You laughed a little too hard.

You pushed love on him so hard,

That you broke it’s back.

Love caught the pneumonia,

You didn’t.

Love lost it’s voice,

You didn’t.

Love can’t walk your journey now,

But you still can,” she said.

And with that,

Misery took me by the hand,

And walked me all the way here,

To your doorstep.

So, do you love me again?
