A Poem by butterfly

Greek mythology,
Shakespeare's tragedy,
The perfect story of you and me
My heart is bitter but my mind feels more wise
Saying goodbye is never nice
It took a long time I think he finally got it right
Why was I in his life? Why was he in mine if we aren't mean to be together for all time?
I dont understand
Could have left as a one night stand
Why do men drive girls mad?
Always coming around holding my hand saying I am the best
I dont understand the story he tried to write
So I let him go I can't force him to be at my side
He never chose me
So I wont choose him either
We make love but are still not together
How did this become a part of the human race?
I hate the games, I hate the masks stuck on the face
I wish they would break forever
I need a miracle to survive this desert stormy weather
Why do we play games with nice texts and charm releasing dreams of forever
Sending out vibes for just sex and harm
When its a good guy we need to keep us warm
He never came
I thought this was his name
Instead he just keep burning me for fun with his stupid flame
I ate it up. I love to play the game
Stupid cupid throw his darts at me
So here I am at the end of this stupid story
So many articles on the news
Even if he chose me
What would I choose?
Its hard to trust
I dont understand love
The only touch I felt was made in lust
Its ok what can I say
I never get a choice anyways
Called me princess and baby
I know for sure this thing we had wasn't  real
Why tell me there is something he feels
He cares for me so he sent a text to hurt me
Is this what guys learn to flirt with ladies?
Please rewrite that story
There is no glory
Just another version of the big bad wolf and red riding hood
Stop making danger in our neighborhood
I  couldnt see, his sweet words and mind confused me
I am too nice giving more than I should
I guess love doesnt do a body good
Now he tells me he wants to be the good man
I hope he can
Not for my sake
Just for the prevention of future heartache
Mythology and tragedies are just lessons and fables
Mostly sad we know happy endings are rare only in fairy tales
I wonder if you truly care
In the end he was never there
it was only your shadow
Now I know
The night is still and cold
I am heartbroken and alone
I feel so dumb
Still I must belive some day my prince will come
I must believe in my dreams
They will come true
its impossible to do
Only then can I write about the love I feel and see
A love to touch and press my cheek on
A hand to hold when its hard to be strong
Loving him was wrong and now I know
Its the usual ending to a tragedy, but not real so just mythology
Forever now this is our sad, sad story....

“Mythology and tragedies” are human creations... and therefore true, but not for everyone, and rarely at the right moments in time. That’s what I think you’ve captured here, the irreconcilable nature of man-made fiction and “real stories.”

And, yes, you “must believe” because in the human mind is where true love stories and poems are made. A good write that conveys the inconvenient truth about love.
