a fresh bandage

you seem
jaded sometimes,
she says,
almost cynical
in your ideas
about love,
marriage, dating
in general.
it's almost like
you've been
wounded,
and the wounds
have never healed.
what's up
with that?
you smile and nod,
perhaps, you
say.
could you please
help me
with this bandage
around my heart,
it's time to unwrap
and put a fresh
one on.
