The Meaning Of Love Poem by Kenny Mantinelli

I wish you could see what the hell is going on.
What the hell he's really like,
Behind that fake mask he puts up for you.

I wish you could see his true personality.
The true personality he hides,
You know.. The ******** inside.

The bull- he speaks to you is fake and unreal.
He speaks words of love and care,
When he's really just another average guy.

He's the kind of guy that would treat a lady right.
The kind that would also get in fights,
Just to prove he's a tougher man.

If that's the false security you want from him,
That's fine by me,
And I wish you luck.

If you just want an average ***hole to hold you,
Go ahead and be with him,
I can't stop you.

I'm done fighting so hard for something I'll never have.
The fight for you will never halt,
But it will slow down from what it has been.

I just wish you could see the difference between him and me.
The difference that should matter more than anything.
The difference between High-School romance and true love.

High-School Romance will only end in heartbreak.
Ending in heartbreak not worth going through.
He's just a High-School romance.

True Love lasts through bumps, twists, and turns.
Rough roads leading to pain now, with happiness later.
I am the soul-mate you discovered.

All he portrays is a pretty picture that you love seeing,
When in reality it will crash down,
And you know you will come back to me when the day comes.

When he and I go off to college in a year,
You'll see who really keeps talking to you,
And who really even cares.

You'll be sitting at home, crying because he cheated on you.
All I'll have to do is hug you,
And truly show you the meaning of love.
