You've taught me something important
Although you can't buy the best things with money
You can lose them without it
Maybe, it was just an infatuation
Maybe, I'm very mistaken
But it seems more and more are torn apart
Does the heart even matter to them anymore?
Maybe it was just an infatuation
Maybe I'm very mistaken
Friendships are fine
Brotherly or sisterly love also won't go away
But it seems following your heart,
Only leads you to utter obliteration
Wasted lives with so many regrets...
I only know of so few
Just think of how many we don't see
Maybe it was just an infatuation
Maybe I'm very mistaken
Is love a fleeting emotion?
Is the anything more than infatuation?
To think love could last forever...
Perhaps for those that don't part along the way,
Are just very lucky
Maybe it was just an infatuation
Maybe I'm very mistaken
Is my single experience with "love" sadly mistaken?
But, alas, in this story...I'm not speaking of my heart
This is only a story I've witnessed
My single year of deception - an example of a long infatuation
Is over since I've finally come to my senses
Although I tried ending it with goodbye,
It ended in the truth finally being told
Thanks though, you made me realize that I,
Was sadly mistaken
Because I have no proof there's anything more than infatuation
Maybe it was only an infatuation...
Maybe I'm very mistaken...
Maybe it was only an infatuation...
Maybe I'm very mistaken...
Maybe it was only an infatuation...
Maybe I'm very mistaken...

Hi! I like it, especially the free-verse stanzas. Now that the song is cold and not still a hot write, fresh off the pen, a little inspection will point out some tiny flaws in punctuation and grammar. I emphasize "tiny"; mostly it's a pretty good piece. By the by, my wife and I met at age eighteen, and on May 22 will clebrate our 36th anniversary. So there can be more than infatuation, as I'm sure you already know. Good writing to you! (That's a best wishes thing.)

Proof for something to be anymore than infatuation... I don't know, but infatuation is temporary love. It may be temprary, but it's still love. So, there's your proof! :)
This poem really stands out from the dozens you've written because it has a distinctive poetic rhythm to it. I've noticed that lately, you seem to be rhyming more and more. You did a real good job on this; with the rhymes, the beats, and the lyrics. It's quite hard to write a song with all those elements, but you got it!
:D You're writing songs more as well! Leigh, I think you have changed!
If there's a flaw in this piece, it's the grammar. I don't really know how to correct them, because I'm not quite sure what you're trying to say, so I suggest you look it over. You'll pick them up, hopefully! ;)
