People say love is powerful and strong.
Love is strong enough, it encouraged me to lie to my parents why I came back at midnight.
“I was working on my assignments,” I said.
They didn’t know we spent time watching movies.
Listened to each other’s heartbeat.
Love is strong enough, it gave me the courage to go inside my brother’s room and took what I need.
“I need money,” you said.
Your needs are my needs.
I thought love is strong powerful and strong but I guess it only works on me because,
it was not strong enough to change your mind when you decided to step out of my life.
Leaving me behind.
