My Side of the Story

Words (Inspired by The Wisdom of Shelley)

She comes to me
With poems in her hand
Signed by someone
Named I.L.Y

She tells me ILY
Has written words
Filled with captivating
Romantic words
I read
She truly believed

I tell her
Must you believe
With your whole heart
On such words?

“You are my only love”
“I will never hurt you”
“There is no one else for me
But you”
He wrote

Do you know how powerful
These words are?
I told her
Is he all talk?
Or does he use these
Words
Twist them
Say them
Without action
True emotion
Forever

I know love
I have seen love
I have seen
Couples tell each other
I love you
Then,
As if it was so soon
They breakup
What is
I love you now?

They do not know such knowledge
Love is to not say
And not mean
Love is to not say
And feel for a moment
Love is to say
And feel forever
No matter what.

“Who do you think you are?
You think you know everything
You think you know how to love”
She argued.
“I don’t love. Not yet. I don’t know
Everything. In fact I’m stupid.
I know how it should work
But I can’t do it, I don’t know how
I need someone, who can truly
Teach me.”

Look at him,
I’m not saying he’s bad
But look at him properly
Is he worth your love?
In love,
Actions that last forever
Come before words.

If love dies
Then it’s not even love
At all.

She drove home
From my place
And saw ILY
With…

Continued home
With tears
Hiding her
Face.

That’s why I don’t. Until im ready. Then when that happens. There’s no stopping me. NOTHING
