Creative Writing, Enjoy! "If I Could Give it a Gender."

If I could give it a gender, Love would be male, and Loneliness would be female. You seeLoneliness and I aren’t the best of friends. She’s the one who took His place. Rather She took my place and became His Love, and took away His Loneliness. She pokes and prods me. The more She does, the weaker I get. I’m human, I’m not immune to Loneliness. She is the trifling woman who took my spot. He cheated on me. He cheated on me with Her, and now She stabs me in the chest every time She’s near. He is what I had, and what She took away. I’ve fought Her before. It’s one battle I’m not always strong enough to win. She’ll beat me until She thinks I’ve forgotten Him. She’ll creep up on me once She knows I haven’t. She’ll leave me alone for a while so She can be with Him. But She won’t let me have Him back. What She doesn’t know is that, though I can’t kill Her, I can paralyze Her. For She is Loneliness, not emptiness. She only temporarily has me weak, once He comes back, She’ll see Her defeat. Emptiness could never replace Love, that’s why it has no gender. If I could give it a gender, Love would be male, andLoneliness would be female. As many times as He cheated on me with Her, He will always come back to where He knew, Loneliness, He could escape you.

C'est tout! <3
