Relationship of Lies

'Good Night'
I say because it’s the proper thing to do while dating.

'Sweet dreams'
Is said, though I really don’t mean it.

'I miss you'
I said to make you happy, even though I don’t.

'Your eyes are pretty'
They really are, just not the eyes my heart longs for.

This poem reflects the reality of a relationship which is empty and hollow..Many relationships end up in a routine of 'miss you,hugs and love you s'..but love isnt about words or beauty ..It goes beyond that..Very well penned-Charma
