Sofa Chair / A Poem

I fell in love once
And it took everything I had
I fell in love, and needless to say I never fell back
No one told me that falling isn't love
There's nothing romantic about falling
Unless your worshipping the Creator above...
I fell in love once
And I thought it was beautiful and true
Little did I know I was blinded, bewitched and confused...
Feelings are liars!
I wish someone would have shared
Feelings are temporary, illegitimate and unfair
Because I'm here now, alone in this sofa chair
Staring at an empty one.
I was in love once! and it was the joke of the year
No one told me that it's not love, if your the only one that cares.
So now I write poems, hoping someone will hear!
Feelings are good mockers of the love that isn't there.
