Love just isn't for me

Love is just an empty feeling
Fleeting with every ponderance
Consider it if you want to feel alone
But why am I writing now?

Love is just invented
A fairy tale to help forget
Some just happen into it
Some just get lucky I guess

I suppose I tend to overthink it
You have me writing poems
Anonymously
Unknown

Hoping you'll show me my own lines
Hoping you'll like who I am
When no one can see it's mine
Why does it have to be you?

Here I am spending so much time
Thinking about something that's not real
or is it simply not mine?

Love hides when you look for it
To find it is to be blind
and walk and be known

To keep it is to keep a secret
Both of you don't want to be alone
