Idea of love

The heart’s restless 
Emptiness, emotionless overpowering 
Guilt entering stealthily 

A fragile heart
broken into million pieces 
For a love that never was 


Longing 
Clinging onto a past 
Onto love that never existed 

For the heart that believed in love 
In reality it was just the idea of love
