abdicate

and thus it is
I abdicate my sense
when from his fingers
gentle text arrives
and in the smiling face
of an emoji
my icy resolve thaws
and yet again I find
myself in realms I swore
I would no more visit
on a well trodden path
whereon my feet
may guide themselves
towards one who considers
my affection but a trifle
and yet
and yet
and yet again
I ask myself
is false hope
better than
despair
