I think we like the idea of love

Feverish kisses
long embraces
fingers down my spine
physical contact
emotional contact

But
no one ever tells you about the hurt
the long nights spent crying
the ache of nothingness
of knowing that you are nothing
with out them

That's all love is
an Idea
a fantasy
a fairy tale

Well there are no such things as fairy tales
no fantasy
no romance

There is not knight in shinning armor
No princess in a tower
No evil witch
No dragon

But
there is us
and you are not my knight in shinning armor
and I am not a princess in a tower
and she's not a witch
and he's not a dragon

No magic
No romance
*** does not entail an emotional connection

I'm sorry Baby
this is not
a kingdom far far away
