Never trust a poet's words

please understand this poem is in a way just me talking to myself, reminding me to not trust a friend who i once loved, thank you

never trust a poet's words

 they sound sweet at first

 but you'll notice the emotion in their words

 it all sounds too...

 fake

 "i love you like the sea loves the shore"

 becomes too scripted

 you hear the small tinge of love actually left in their voice

 hoping

 hoping it could mean something

 but it doesn't

 it never does

 it's just the way they say it

 one day, after they have left

 you will find their poems, and they will be the exact words that they had said to you

 once long ago

a very truthful poem...and a remarkable one...poets are humans too and they can truly hide their true selves behind words...words for them is an escape...so read between the lines
