Love is none but pain and sorrow,
Love is grief and tears.
Love is poison that affects you
Slowly through the years.
Once love gets a hold on you,
It won't set you free.
Love is fatal happiness.
Love is not for me.
She and I were just good friends,
And then became much more.
I started feeling things for her
I never felt before.
Dark eyes promising return…
That's the last I'd see.
Then it was I realized
Love is not for me.
To see and love her once again-
That dream can't come true.
The truth confirmed she married off-
That's not what made me blue.
To hold her in my arms once more-
That can never be.
Grief is mortar for my loss.
Love is not for me.
Loneliness is my companion;
We will never part.
Time explains how none can mend
This my broken heart.
Love will permanently scar you.
Love's a parody
Of happiness and loneliness.
Love is not for me.
