What if it was never about love ?


 

 

I know writers say 

Love can happen twice 

But what if the 

love never really happens ? 

What if the emotion we thought 

About as love was not really love ? 

 

I know love changes it’s place 

From one heart to another , 

But what if love never really stayed ? 

What if where you stayed for long 

In the name of love 

Was not love ? 

 

I know poets say in their poetry , that with love comes happiness 

But what if those poetries 

turned into ghazals which  

often rhyme about wait and pain ?

 

What if love was never really the synonym of happiness ? 

What if love was 

Not bound within my words 

And your hearts ? 

What if love was free ? 

What if love can’t be expressed 

But only felt ?

<p>This poem really makes me think. I like how you look deeper into a concept that many people overlook or take for granted.&nbsp;</p>
