»Dear Love«

by Lerato Jahder Mollomabina, September 15, 2016

Dear love

I'm writing to question
Please do not answer
Here is my story.

I met her, dearly a friend
I Thought she was a God sent
It is a taboo to be with her.
But I followed my heart.

Somehow we both felt
Our hearts matched
That love lived within, in us.

Now I know that was an illusion
And only I alone felt,
To her im another used to be

The person I once loved
Is a person I now despise
I wont sympathize
I question all the pain
I question her heart
The heart I thought I had.

So love do not answer
You do not live in the world
You are an ideal dream,
You are a fantasy
A comforter.

From a broken heart.
