CONDITIONAL LOVE… AM I REALLY IN LOVE?

By: Maria Magdaline A. Bolaños

If love is the key to someone’s happiness,

Then I should be happy instead of feeling less.

You do things for me but never a success,

Because I am the one who makes it worthless.

If I demand you to become someone new,

Then you follow it for us to continue.

When I think about it, what if I ask you

To break up with me, will you follow it too?

You love me unconditionally, but I

I am unable to return that back. Lie,

A pretentious deed that could make your heart die

I think it is better now to say goodbye.

Without conditions, you soar high like a dove.

If what I’ve felt is unconditional love,

Then it can make dozens of hearts fly above,

If and only if I am truly in love.
