So You Say You're In Love - July 24, 2010

A Poem by EvaMackenzie

So you say you're in love
But I've heard this all before
I need some convincing
This time
How's it different?

So you say that you're happy
Then why are you crying?
Are those tears of joy?
Or are you just lying
To yourself?

So you say you're meant to be
With him and no one else
Then why are you cheating
Yourself out of finding
Your true love?
The way that you're cheating
On him
With everyone else

So you say that you've mended
All of the problems you once had
So why are you broken?
Left to pick up the pieces
By yourself

So you say you forgive him
Have you already forgotten
All of the things
He's said to you?
Has he said that he's sorry?
Or do you blame yourself
For the things
That he's done?

So you say you're in love
Over and over, all the time
Is it me you're convincing?
Or maybe your doubts
Have you questioning?

So you say that you love him
But maybe what you love
Is the idea?
Is that why it's hard
To come up with the reasons
That he is the only
One who is worthy
Of your true love?

So you say you just know
But if you really did
Would you still be persuading?
Are you convinced yet?
Because I'm not believing

So you say you're in love?
