it was real
but it was not love
it was cleanly folded paper forming origami doves
but its not doves
nor was it love.
it demanded to be felt
to have a deeper meaning in the proximity
like constellations up above
but it was not love
misread by the heart
like stars seemingly aligned to one another but lightyears apart
it was not love.
i wish to stay,
pray,
fight for it to be what we want it to be,
love
but its not enough,
not if its not love.
