What's Real?

There's a saying, when you love someone, you love all of them no matter what. You bring them up when they're feeling down. You dry their tears when the river of pain flows from their eyes. You put your arms around them to be their shield. For most people can't wear armor for it's too heavy to bear. To see good in a person although, that person doesn’t see it in their self. Love, love is so strong you'll do for your lover before you do for yourself. The hardest part about being in love is being in love with someone who's not in love with you. To tell you what you want to hear and not what they mean. To use you to get what they want and not what they need. To tell you they will never leave you but they're making plans to be with someone else. Love, how can we tell what's real? Author: Jaspery Jones Jr. J Two Date: April 21, 2008
