Sonnet: Love is a Lie

by Rama Celine Mahmalji

I often stand along and ask myself, what is love

Is it the feeling that fills the emptiness in our souls,

Or is it the butterflies that in thy stomach evolve,

Oh, maybe it is just a way to ourselves console

How many times do you fall in the dark

Once, twice, or infinite times

Is love truly an ever-fixed mark

Or is it just a feeling that with time declines

Does love deserve all the tears wasted,

Or all the nights spent with misery

But what about all the moments with joy painted

Oh, I am afraid I can’t solve this mystery

Love is a lie, an illusion that’s created by fairy tales

But only believes in it whose heart is frail
