LOVE ❤️

It’s only you I gave my heart

I even believed in you the funny part

I was so fooled by you that I couldn’t even understand my feelings

Now I see it was only stupid emotions

For you I could’ve even crossed the oceans

But now I see I would’ve landed into unwanted destinations

I’d always look for you even at the wrong place

But the only thing I want now is peace and to chase my dreams at my own pace

My heart was always at the people I loved but their minds were at a different place

Now I always choose to avoid you just in case

You choose to leave me at an unpleasant place

I know you’re “LOVE” and you weren’t meant to be so painful

But it’s the people in this world who make you so hurtful

And cutting you off I think is a plan that can be so useful

Because you’re like a drug I wouldn’t like to be addicted to

I am scared of you “LOVE”

Because you’re a risky thing to have
