True Love Is An Old Lie Poem by Kareem Ayodejih Abeeb
True Love Is An Old Lie
True love is an old lie
Long passed down and is yet to die
Told round fires to children of a young age
So they may hunger for marriage.
True love is an old lie for it talks

Of flames that do not scald
And of vultures that are not bald.
True love is an old lie
Realise this so it may die
Vivid description of someone who has truly been hurt before. I am blow away.
