Love Used To Be....
Love used to be a word
That I believed in,
An emotion so strong.
It used to be a feeling
That I had felt
For so long.
Love was so carefree,
Full of passion
And my only desire.
It gave me affection,
Made me alive,
Like I was on fire.
It was always something
For me to depend on,
That's what I believed.
But in one moment
It was all gone,
Nothing was as it seemed.
It was just a fantasy,
A Fairy Tale that vanished
Into thin air.
Learning now
Nothing is forever
And life is never fair.
Yes, love was something
I was very much in,
That I gave all my soul to.
But now my heart
Is broken, feeling no love,
That this word is no longer true.
But at least I can say
At one time it was
And it felt great.
To be in love, to feel loved,
Even if only once,
It was so magical to create.
