fake love is a gift
and one not to be taken lightly
because you destroy a young girls heart
while she holds it tightly
yes, tightly from anyone new
and anyone devoted
because when guys come in view
she cowers and hides away from the hurt
replaying trauma through her head
begging the crimes to not go unsaid
the betrayal and love were mixed in her mind
and if you see her journals pages you'll come to find
fake love is not a gift for the weak
she's broken and crying
so scared, she won't speak
hope is a light to dim for her eyes
that have been glued shut from so many cries
her mind is a train to stiff for the tracks
to scared to go forward and to scarred to go back
this fake love was torture
she's too anxious to accept
she must brush off her tears
and move past what she's wept
new opportunities will finally come her way
when she loves herself more than the people who never stay
fake love is not a gift for the strong
because even the not so fragile may break and blame themselves as the ones in the wrong
so really is fake love a gift for anyone?
