When it's for real I think I'll know.
I'm not certain, there's no guidance
no sparks or slow motion or music;
not like in the films
- at least I assume.
I don't want it to hurt
because real love is painless
and true love isn’t put on pause
- not for them
(especially when it's real)
but at the end of it all,
when it becomes too serious, when the admiration fades.
At the end if it all they don't feel the same
and it's never real
at least I hope so
