Real

Real things don’t last, fake things do.
Fresh roses plucked from nature
Shrivel after a single adventure
Artificial roses, last for a thousand poses
And yet the real are more appealing
They give us that kind of feeling
That lifts us high as the ceiling 
But it’s different in people and feelings

Real people last for ever
Real love is a forever fever
Fake love is cold, it gives me a shiver
Real friends, always helpful
In despair, make you hopeful
They may forget your birthday
They won’t leave you on a bad day
When you are sick they pray
You get fit they play

What about fake people?
There for show like a wax apple
They may remember every occasion
They never show their real intention
They can’t keep a secret
Always make you regret 
Only as good as cigarette  
For a short time, make you feel great
While they kill you internally 

So choose wisely 
And watch keenly
Fakes always come in silver plate
And the real are hard to get

Abdalla, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
