An uncanny unmitigated desire

Unflinching unrelenting
An uncanny unmitigated desire
to unleash unreservedly against
the unrequited love unfolding

Mindful though not to be unsavoury 
nor unobtrusive but unpretentious 
and to remain forthwith unscathed 
against an upsurge of uneasiness 
lest unjustly judged unruly 
and of unsound mind
by an unconcerned him

Unprecedented but to remain
unflaggingly unruffled
unlikely to give in
but to wage war unassisted alone

  1. Unrequited love unfolding, ye, I agree that it must be ended. Healthline says it's magnitude often requires therapy in order to relent. Nice read, if I had it after a divorce I sure don't have it now.

  2. Love not returned does cause some intense feelings for sure. You have captured that here well Hank! Always glad to see you at the Muse and thank you for dealing with the linky mishaps.
