The Lie of Love

You pour your heart,

your soul,

very being 

into one thing,

one person,

and you believe,

naively,

stupidly,

wishfully,

hopelessly,

that they live,

and thrive,

and soar,

and that the dreams,

they have will,

manifest like,

a spell,

like magic,

but maybe you already know,

maybe you already can feel,

wishes aren't granted,

dreams turn to dust,

and everything,

everyone,

no matter the love,

or care,

dies.
