The Grim of Love

Love… what is it really?
I thought I knew the definition once upon a time,
Now I’m just not so sure.
I no longer trust my hearts answer,
since it has failed me too many times in the past.
Too afraid of encountering the unbearable pain of so called “love lost”.
So I ran away and hid from the Webster’s politically correct version.
That was until I ran right smack into you…
You! The true essence of what love really is.
Now I know I am severely screwed,
because now I found myself completely in love with you and there is nothing I can do.
So hoping for the best but expecting the worse is all I seem to do.
Just expecting you to say that you had your fun and now you are done.
A pessimist you might think of me, but I am a realist.
I have foreseen the way my life will end, and it will be due to a broken heart.
Since I see myself loving no one but you; you are now my new grim reaper.
I now know what love is… love is expecting death to be near.
