I don't understand how love could ever be.
Somehow I find it hard to believe.
Dad says it's when a person never leaves your mind.
Says he's loved my mom for a long time.
Then what happened?
He fell for someone else over twenty years later.
Then drugs took over my moms life.
My dads new "love" goes to prison.
He falls for someone else agin.
How does that happen.
What if there's no such thing as love.
Could it only be a fantasy?
I've stopped looking.
See if someone will find me.
And only hope it's true.
Time will tell if forever is real.
I want to understand how it could feel.
As far as I know it hurts.
And tears you apart.
Goes in..
Straight for your heart..

~M.A.B. 💘
