What's Real?

By: Kelli Loree Reinstra

I don't want to be jealous
or not trust my mate
but that's all i've seen of love,
not passionate kisses
or goggly eyes
but jealous fits
and accusations of infidelity,
that's not what love's supposed to be like
it should be romantic evenings
long weekends
love notes and roses,
but from what i've seen it's not
it's unhappiness and misery
not joy and happiness
what has happened to true love,
it must just be a fantasy
not real life
'cause true love only comes to few,
i hope I'm one of the few
that gets to know the happiness
of the fantasy
not the misery of real life,
i don't think i could handle it
the pain and misery
of real life love
could you?
