To Hopeless Romantics, I’m sorry

Hopeless romantics will always stay that way in real life

Life is not a romcom or fairytale

The perfect relationship with no bumps or falls

I hate to break it to you, but they'll always fail

It's okay to dream and yearn

But don't drag others into that fantasy

Because no one can act the exact way you want them to

And trying to force that will end in travesty

Be real, you're not asleep when you walk the Earth

Think your actions through, because everyone needs to think

You can have hope in romance but remember it takes more than one

You can get your relationships but don't let it easily sink
