Fake Love

When you know you will never be

When you love them all the more

When it’s a day

A night

Or a even a fateful hour at the airport

When you know you loved them before they noticed you

When it seems so right

But you’re so determined to make it wrong

When you dream about them and they are only a phone call away

Still, you can’t make the call

It’s not meant to be

Though meeting them never was either

You were suppose to miss that flight

You were suppose to be sad and miss that dinner

You were suppose to work late

But fate stepped in

It provided you with a date you never signed up for

Lovers

Estranged only by egos

Grandiosity has rendered us inept

Our hearts; unkept

Our tears; unwept

I’ll never see you again

Mores the pity;

When you navigate unknown pathways

Sadly, you paved them yourself
