World's Fake Love

Our 'love' is a drug
You took away all my senses
For a concrete solution
Yet you keep asking yourself
Where is this feeling
The feeling described in books and children's stories

I asked myself
Why do I love you
Why do I have to care
And a little voice will answer
"Because, sometimes, the most important things in this world aren't fair"

In the modern world this love is fake
When love was meant to be free and unconditional
You turned it into a tool for my downfall
You made my love for you into a tool for my demise

When I see you today
I realize that, somehow, we were a lie

In this modern world our love was fake
When our love
Was supposed to be meant for joy
The fake love that we shared was not for thrills or happiness

If what we had was never love
What more do you ask of me
As nothing more
Than a person dying for attention

A/N
This probably makes no sense whatsoever and there is a very good reason for that. I was 14 when I wrote this. It was after my first breakup and he broke up with me. (If you've had it happen, you know the feeling). I felt awful. Essentially the entire relationship felt fake. Honestly if I knew then what I know now, I could've seen the signs. All in all, he left me for my best friend.
Anyways, at the time I was in to writing songs not poetry, so I had to adapt this out of 3 verses, the chorus, and the bridge. The song was never finished but this poem now is. Yay for adaptations! Lol 😂
