You said you loved me, but I knew.
You're not mine, and not so true.
What is love? And why can't she?
All we do is fight, and never agree.

We have some fun, sometimes.
You'll learn a lot, if you read my rhymes.
You don't know love, no one can.
It been that way, since time began.

I can say I love someone, but it won't last.
Trust me, I learned it all from my past.
I asked out this girl, she said yes.
I was impressed, by her beautiful dress.

Then the day came, were we said we were in love,
I felt I was flying, far above.
But then she went out with this guy,
I got mad, and knocked the guy sky high.

The same thing happens, the same way.
And I learned all this, in just one day.

Connel,
I know poetry is sacrosant and we're not supposed to mess with it but if yopu want to submit this I would suggest a few small changes.
You said you loved me, but I knew.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

(sad sigh) Sometimes love is hard to understand, but there is one love that is impregnable, golden, eternal, promising, and you are bound to find it, you just have to not ask what love is but anticipate it! (big hugggsssss) This is touching, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Connel, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

At what point is love not love?
Romantic love takes cooperation on both parts...anything less leads to frustration and failure...James

Very nicely written.  It says a lot about what people call love these days but it's a false love.  There's something better, purer, and much more true out there.  I do hope you find it (or rather, it finds you) someday.  I really enjoyed this

This is your view on love, but love might not always be like this. Hope love will be a sweet experience for you some day.
