Love

GOODBYE
Why did you have to break my heart? You said you loved me, but i guess not. You moved on so fast and left be behind. You confused me, not only my heart, but my mind. I sit in my room and wonder what i did wrong, when really i should wonder why i was with you so long. I cried and wasted too many tears on you. Its hard to believe I actually loved you. All i wanted was someone to call mine, but you lost interest and that was a big sign. A sign that this relationship needed to end. A sign that my heart would take a while to mend. So i say goodbye to you for disregarding my feelings that used to be true.

This was a poem i wrote a while ago about a past relationship. It is interesting to look back and try to remember if it was REAL love or something that was portrayed to be love. The problem with love that it takes time to form properly. Jumping into a relationship and immediately saying "I love you" is not necessarily real. Sadly, "love" is thrown around more and more. These days, love doesn't mean what it used to. Now, love is related to sex with most people. They think that if they do those things that it is real, true love. It's not. 

Don't dwell on the past, because you can't change it. Let yourself move on from those things. If you are hung up on the past, it can be harmful to any future relationships you may have. Say goodbye to them. Try not to mistake true love for something that is a temporary feeling or want.
