Fell out of love - a poem
Can you really fall out of love?
I thought forever meant always,
No added conditions
A devotion to work through anything
No matter the conditions
But you didn’t
You flushed it away
No obvious reason
Just you ‘fell out of love’
I only had you for a season
7 months not above.
Like some damn politician
Wrote me off like I was superstition
No evidence of intuition
You just left.
And I need you back.
Or back to at least understand why
Why when you smile it’s like you really want to cry?
Did you really try to cling on?
Do you live now in a happier time?
Or like you are for me, am I always on your mind?

This is a heartbreaking poem but this line "Like some damn politician" made me chuckle a bit.
Sadly, this happens very often. I just don't understand how someone can fall out of love. Such a poignant poem!
