I’m not saying you shouldn’t move on. But how can memories be washed away so easily? You don’t even see me anymore. You pass by like you never knew me, never held me, never cried for me, never swore it was forever. Was it all fake or just a beautiful moment with an expiration date? How do profound memories vanish in a single blink? Love is bogus. Today, you can’t live without me. Tomorrow, you can’t even stand walking past me. Love is bogus. Today we’re lovebirds, tomorrow perfect strangers. From warm comfort to stiff silence, From effortless laughter to awkward distance. I don’t ask for much… just recognition that what we had was real.

Love Is Bogus
I’m not saying you shouldn’t move on. But how can memories be washed away so easily? You don’t even see me anymore. You pass by like you never knew me, never held me, never cried for me, never swore it was forever. Was it all fake or just a beautiful moment with an expiration date? How do profound memories vanish in a single blink? Love is bogus. Today, you can’t live without me. Tomorrow, you can’t even stand walking past me. Love is bogus. Today we’re lovebirds, tomorrow perfect strangers. From warm comfort to stiff silence, From effortless laughter to awkward distance. I don’t ask for much… just recognition that what we had was real.
Can memories be erased? Love is real or bogus
