Sequence

In some sincerity I used to say
I had no interest in being linked
With anyone; alone, I was OK.
But then my fortune, and my heartbeat, blinked
And I was changed. I could not long deny
I had desires I had not expressed;
Then I began to meditate and sigh
About the love I wanted, not possessed,
Feeling the pain I had before avoided
By simple unconcern about its grief
Now swelling inwardly, greatly steroided
And bursting past the bounds of disbelief.
But then you spoke, and I was free again
From pain; but for a different reason then.
