435 I am not in love (Poems of Exile)



      I am not in love



A certain someone (if you would believe it) is in love with me,

not only a little, She dies of love: she is consumed.

And thus, she will grant me favours I shouldn’t ask –

I would show her love always, but believe me:  I am not in love.




Perhaps Seneca can offer an antidote to too much chocolate and excessive sweetness?

Seneca might say, "this could lead to lead poisoning".

I'm curious to find out what blog system you are working with? I'm experiencing some minor security problems with my latest
site and I'd like to find something more safe. Do you have any recommendations?
