Her

Henceforth she will known only as Her,
Who brought about such feverish persistence
Much like a rusted-over spur,
Resulting in questions of existence.

Days and nights filled with thoughts about Her
Personality, humor, or was it her smile?
An essence, a pleasant odor?
Or plain self-denial?

Perhaps this she did not equal Her
Not even real?
Yes, I concur,
Some sort of abstract ideal.

So once again we arrive at the start,
Indeed,
Why waste your heart
On an impossible need?
