Supposedly In Love Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Looking around, watching people who are supposedly in love,
seeing interior tears flowing from constant abuse.

Scarring a tattered heart and ripped soul, day after day
hoping things will get better, but they never do.

A life captured and yet abandoned by a love that was only
a selfish, self-centered one.

Looking through a window out upon the world, wondering how
it could have happened.

How could a wonderful dream of everlasting love turn into
such a horrible nightmare.
