Not love
As Valentine's day approaches, I have a challenge for you: write a poem that suggests love, but does not quite reach it. do not write about the idea of love; make the reader experience it and snatch it away. Leave me feeling not heartbroken, not smiling, but somewhere in between. Must have the line "not love" in there somewhere. And as always, tag me in the comments @Dream.

Going through the motions of love
The hollow good morning texts
The walks beside the Irish sea
Days in bed wrapped up in each other
Nude with no racing hearts
We remember our love well
We are actors
Fooling each other and outselves
Not love just a shadow in the shape of love
