(Unofficial) Poetry Monday

Marina Ivanova Tsvetaeva

You who loved me with the falseness
Of truth - and the truth of lies.
You who loved me-beyond
Anything!-Over the edge!
You who loved me beyond
Time-Right hand, wave!
You love me no more:
The truth in five words.

12 December 1923

Somedays it feels like I was born a hundred years before that, but no, it's the date the poem was written.

That's pretty sad. I'll have to pass that on next time someone I know gets dumped :)

Who needs a happy poem?
