We do not always wake up
With smiles on our face,
And some mornings are harder,
Love feels out of place.

a well-penned one......we indeed get into mechanical relationships at times.....more of symbiotic kind....we do judge ourselves harshly, when romance turns mild and relationships sour.....Isn't is a reason why relationships in Wets are short-lived? We do lose the joy and zeal as the relationship matures, , , , , now how ironical is that! Well I would like you to elaborate and explain me what you meant in last stanza..

indeed well-written, shows great emotions. Although there are many including me who haven't been through such situations but that doesn't mean it's not happening around. Most of the times we fight for the one's we love but in return they never give you what you deserve. So I see no point in a relationship such as the one mentioned in the poem.Cause if there's no love then there's no future to it either. You delivered your message quite well.

Sometimes the feeling just isn't there. But usually when that happens, it doesn't return. You can't turn love on and off. Either you feel it, or you don't. And if you feel uneasiness, that's a warning, for sure. Is mechanical love good for anyone? Would anyone appreciate it? There's nothing like the real thing..... A good, thought-provoking poem, well written.
