My Heart Isn't Really In Love With You

Ripples in the water, currents in the stream
Ever flowing motion insubstantial as a dream
Clouds are water vapour flowing over the sky
Dreams are nights' images that take me flying high
Rainbows are lights refraction seen through a mist
And this isn't really heaven, it's nothing just a kiss

Stars are not magic they don't shine for you
They're only suns' burning in space, this is true
The rain doesn't beat out the rhythm of my heart
And if you don't look my way then I won't fall apart
Unicorns only live in fairy tales they're not real
And magic doesn't exist its not magic I can feel

The sunshine doesn't really play across my hips
It's not special when I feel you touch my lips
The lightening flash doesn't inscribe your name
My blood doesn't turn itself into liquid flame
Angels fly above doing what it is they should do
And my heart really isn't at all in love with you

excellent poem which speaks for many, including self but when the significant other of a love will not let go, the other
one tends to have these very feelings of wanting out of the relationship yet never gaining that freedom

*sigh* I always find it sad to read that love is not there. So this one makes me *sigh* with regret for you. Wonderful writing. Much love and New Years hugs from me to you.

Love I leave with you my friend whether it be in your life or of yet the essense of your dreams.

Kethry love, I've had it, it's true that the operation was performed in less than ideal conditions, no anaesthesia, bent rusty spoon instead of a scalpel, and in a muddy field instead of the aseptic conditions of a hospital theatre, but I'm fine. (Actually they sound better conditions than our hospital,   it's  only a joke people, our hospital isn't that bad. Yes it is!   )
Take care

I'll be okay kid honestly, and thank you love.
