Hopeless

Did you know?
That love can die?
Can wither into dust?
Not just a love,
But pure, true love.
Like metal, it can rust.

Did you know?
I believed in love.
I thought it was the world.
It was my home,
It was my life,
Before gone went the girl.

Did you know?
She was a friend.
One I'll never forget.
Now love has died,
And left a shell,
Holding one regret.

Did you know?
Love can't be fixed.
Because it never existed.
It was a lie.
For my oblivious life.
And back I cannot change it.

Did you know?
That I still love.
Because I long for the past.
Before mistakes,
When love was returned.
I thought true love could last.
