Love Gets You Down Poem by abi Whitaker

it's amazing how much damage
can be done on good intentions
because nobody was supposed to get hurt
and you'll think that you're happy
but it's far from permanent
because all love does is get you down
love gets you down
and i dont need it
yeah i'm just fine without it
i dont need to be tied down
and you all take it far too seriously
when all i wanted was a laugh
i was just in it for the funnys
i set out with good intentions
to have fun
but it must have been serious
when i wasn't looking
and thats how i got hurt.
