Love

My views on love.

Love
To you something cherished
To me something unattainable
To you something beautiful
To me something far-fetched

Love
It’s for fairytales and storybooks
Not made for real life
It’s a fantasy that can’t be reached
One that I’m not sure I want

Love
I hear wonderful stories of it
Of soul mates who find each other
But I see real life
See couples torn apart

Love
Why must we find it?
Why must that be our life’s goal?
Why can’t I just live,
The way I want to live?

Love
I don’t want to end up like them
Hating life for what its done
I want to have fun and not worry
Want to live without pain

Love
To you it’s fantastic
To me it’s unlikely
To you it’s needed
To me it’s superfluous
