Triangle

Mar 2, 2026 | 2026 Spring - Relationships, Poetry

By Zsófia Hajnal

I won’t change the way I love you
For love, you are a prism too
More deflected than absorbed
This love meets someone multifold

In this way, you are a bridge
And although triangles make us twitch
This kind of love might never fledge
Would there not be another edge

Zsófia Hajnal is a poet and economist based in Budapest, Hungary, and the author of the book Unfulfilled: Poems of Love, Longing, and Hope. Her poems also appear in What We Hold On To: Poems of Coping, Connection, and Carrying On and the forthcoming “My Sweet Mother” anthology.
