The arithmetic of Deserve!!

 The word "Deserve"

A bell of cold steel in my head,

Ringing every time the pain resurfaces.


It demands a reckoning:

Who deserves what?

Did you not deserve me,

Or I, you?


Easy to recite that judgment,

Yet the pain does not dissolve.

We might never know the silence

Of who we are, without our us.



Who walks away with the light path,

And who inherits the harsh ground?

We simply move on, the broken echo

Of that painful "Deserve" locked inside.


Love is not found only in happiness.

Its deepest gravity pulls in sadness—

When, stripped of logic, you realize

You still want the same familiar soul,

Even knowing the cost of the pain.
