Stupid Cupid
I see you lurking about
making him say
sweet nothings
to lure me out.
This time
I am being smart,
walling off
my broken heart.
Using your
flaming arrows
to paint the sky.
Let the world know
you are really
not a nice guy.
You are a trickster
who makes girls cry
with your stupid lies.
My schooled soul
knows the truth
betrayed.
Romantic love
is an illusion,
passion fades.
Real love
starts within,
is patient, kind,
and never ends.

Thank you Heart of Lead. It takes supreme effort to not give into the bitterness of a broken heart, but to instead forgive and move on. I find that writing helps by taking the hit to cushion the blow.
