I spent my days picking petals off of flowers

"He loves me. He loves me not"

Wasting away all life's graces,

While he spent his day loving another

Ah! the feeling of being foolish and romantically so!

[Adrienne]

this is a beautifully tragic poem; i love its simplicity alongside the depth.

such a dark, sad twist to this...
and yes, we often find we waste time pining over what wasn't good for us in the first place.
