I don't Believe

I don't believe in true love
It's human nature that I'm thinking of
It all dissolves when push comes to shove
Infatuation lost like losing a pair of gloves,

Ask me if I believe or if I care
Of course, I did until she left me there
And they used to say we were quite a pair
She's gone now but I see her everywhere,

Love always conquers all
I've heard all this falter all
It all comes down to shopping at the mall
And when they leave you just stand tall,

I used to think I knew as a young man
I was a hopeful soul in desolate lands
I was entirely ready to play my hand
But a woman's heart is just shifting sand,

God forgive me for my indiscretion
That I never seemed to learn my lesson
Time for another self examination session
Beware when it seems you're her obsession,

It all begins oh so nice
Your delusion of paradise
Then the world comes in cold as ice
Cuts up your heart with each little slice,

You told me to stop living in the past
Because to you love would never last
Don't even know why my expression was aghast
My ship's set sail it's at full mast,

I don't believe in true love
It's human nature that I'm thinking of
It all dissolves when push comes to shove
Infatuation lost like losing a pair of gloves.

Comment by Doc Vega on September 18, 2019 at 1:23pm: Chris, such sentiments are inescable when it comes to love.

Comment by Chris of the family Masters on September 16, 2019 at 2:24pm: Yes Less, I mourn humanity slipping away...

Comment by James Roberts on September 16, 2019 at 1:38pm: Doc - Thanks. I think as to relationships, we build up emotional baggage, and people grow to "see the game" of the opposite sex (for women, hypergamy, etc.). Makes it harder to throw oneself into it as an 18 year-old would (when you're 40 and older).

Comment by Doc Vega on September 16, 2019 at 12:22pm: James Roberts, I'm like you. I still believe in true love but it's a lot less likely nowadays.

Comment by Doc Vega on September 16, 2019 at 12:21pm: James Roberts Don't worry man I never figured your genes would have anything to do with a pile of dog shit like Justice Roberts.

Comment by Doc Vega on September 16, 2019 at 12:20pm: Les Prone excellent points and I agree completely.

Comment by James Roberts on September 14, 2019 at 6:16pm: I do still believe in true love, it's just a lot harder to come by these days.

Comment by Less Prone on September 14, 2019 at 11:52am: Social engineering took over, even the basic instincts flushed down the drain. Who wants a family while you can have all the illusions flashing on your mind. ME the center of it all, ME, ME, ME. Never realising that a selfish individual is nothing but a shadow of what could have been. Give me my i-phone, my selfies, my facebook career, my plastic tits.. Our species is so manipulatible, so.
