Down with the sickness - lovesickness

I am always surprised to discover
exactly how much I love you;
The scenario replays itself over and over -
Time is looped like a möbius strip;
Always the same reaction -
The same smile, the same lingering gaze,
The same touch, the same warmth,
The same love sick daze.

Nostalgia

Time does not stop for heartache,
Though it likes to linger
Takes you places backwards instead of forwards
Because time likes being nostalgic.

(A taste of the past is good,
But too much bittersweet
Will rot your mind,
Your heart
And teeth.)
