Real Love?

Real Love..

Does it exist?

The

Ingredients of which

It must consist

Somehow just

End up

Dismissed

You call it “love,”

I call bullshit.

Love is

Patient,

Love is

Kind.

It can’t see

Flaws

For it is

Blind;

And more

Than gold

And wealth

Combined;

Its valued

Worth,

Precious;

Divine.

Yet, still

This life’s

Reality

Reveals

Human mentality

We share our

“Love”

So fallibly

We hurt someone?

So shall it be

The circle of

Fatality.

Like a sickness

Spread

From shaking hands

We don’t

Love;

We make demands

Expect them to

Obey commands

While we fail

To care

Or understand

The

Silhouette

Of the

Heart

A true reflection

Of one’s own

Inner

Imperfection

Our treatment

Based

On our

Perception…

Demanding

Infinite

Affection;

But leave

Because

We fear

Rejection

Either that,

Or lies;

Deception

The love

Of your life?

Or your

Possession?

So

Am I

Wrong

To feel

Unsuited

For

Something so

Damned

Convoluted

I lose

It wins

It’s

Undisputed

Always

Makes me

Feel so

Stupid

But in all

This

The lesson

Learned

Love

Is

Not

How I got

Burned

No..

It’s the

Person

That I

Yearned

Gave my heart

Freely

It wasn’t

Earned.

The price you

Pay

That grave

Mistake

Confusing love

With something

Fake

The grass is

Green

But there’s a

Snake

Look again

For your own

Sake

Before you

Know it

You’ll get

Bitten

How easily

We become

Smitten

Our brains

Scream loud

Our hearts

Don’t

Listen

Illusions

Of love;

Crippling

Addiction

Now

Take your

Bow

While I

Applaud

You

Fooled me

With your

Sweet façade

Your human

“love”

All along

A fraud

Love does

Exist..

But only

In

God.
