Love Poem: Words Are Words

Words Are Words

Words are words
what good are words if the'yre not lived by
Say one thing do another-
a lie is a lie

Right is right
not made by two wrongs
I'm finding truth
in the saddest songs

This house is not a home
You're here
but I'm alone

A smile is a smile
anyone can wear
the truth is the truth
you won't find it there

But you pretend you don't know 
you know I'm pretending
Don't ask, don't tell; 
ignore the message I'm sending

Love is love
it's only as real 
as the fake smile that flaunts it
a heart is a heart
but what good is a heart 
if nobody wants it
