False Love Poem by Cory Caudill

You said we would be forever and like a fool i believed your words and lying eyes.
No longer are you in my arms, you say youve lost yourself in his as i become a distant fading memory, a ghost in your past while you move on into the future with him. but soon you will be sitting alone, hollow like me. One day you will remember us and say to me, where is love? I will reply, the love you are looking for does not exist any more, it has become a fairy tale, lost in a sea of lies and cheating. Love now is just a cruel sherade, it gives false hope and real pain, it will leave you empty and discusted with what you thought you had. All the wasted emotions and words will come to mind.
So when I am asked why i walk alone, it is because i would rather walk alone and be true to my selfthan walk with someone else pretending, fooling myself into falling into this false love, false hope that it carrys that I know all to well and despise so much.
