Real Or Fake

1 Tear
2 Tear
3 Tear
4...
How many tears will hit the floor?
5
6
7
8...
I wish they'd stop its getting late.

I never seen this as my fate
We started off with just one date
We lived and loved and made mistakes
They piled up and made us break.

Is love real or is love fake?
I guess its all just what we make.

It felt sort of like a Dr. Seussian love poem, which is kinda cool. I can totally relate to the wondering if love is real or fake. Good job; kudos! :)

It is hard to tell sometimes who is being honest about their feelings for us. There is really no way to know, we just have to take a chance on it. I understand the feelings that you expressed here, because I have experienced them myself. I really liked this poem, Kalee! It is very unique in style, nicely done!...Thank you for the kind comments on my poem. I really appreciate it!

Love is defined by the hearts that speak its message and then show that message even more without obligation or a need for something in return. Been here...may the tears make us more resilient once they dry. Wonderful piece! I like your writing style & honesty here.
