Love Is Not My Friend Poem by Lechelle Jones (01.24.91,D.C)

if our love was so strong
wat possibly made it fade
could you understand that you broke my heart in too many different ways
ways that make it seem it can not be repaired
and its simply for that reason why my hearts a little scared
scared to open back up to this vulnerable game called love

i try to play fair and put my whole heart on the line but every time i do
i loose
i thought love would be a friend
but it somtimes stabs you in the back.
thats when we become heart broken and attacked
but maybe its not love thats being unfaithful at all
maybe its just silly people who when it comes to love they fall.
