Strange World

Strange World

Whenever someone talks to you about love and 
illusions and promises you everything under the 
sun, if you remember me, don't mention my name, 
because you will feel true love then.

If they want to know about your past - you will have 
to tell them a lie. Tell them that you come from a
strange world. Tell them that you don't know how to 
love, that you don't understand love and that you 
have never cried.

Where ever I go - I will talk about your love, like a golden 
dream. Forgetting the hurt, forgetting the pain - I will not
tell them - that your love made me a disgrace.

If they want to know about my past - i will have to tell
them another lie. I will tell them that I came from a strange
world, that I don't know of hurt, that I don't know of pain,
that I conqurered love and that I have never cried.

You will always be the the one and only love of my life, even
if you come from that strange world...

Demetrios Trifiatis September 26, 2013 at 8:40 AM True love is like gold, you have to dig up many tons of dirt just to find a speck of it, unless one is of the lucky few who finds it on the bed of the river where is waiting to be picked up! Very beautiful and touching poem, Lucy! I enjoyed it!
