Romance Died with the Romantic


I am hopeless
       When I should be realistic.
I am cold
       When I should be warm.
I am distant
       When I should be close.

But this was how I was made.
       To hide.
       To defend.
       To chase the parts of me that bleed
       with enduring feats.

I am bold at times.
       Taking risk that come with gaining
       Bruises on my chest.
I am lost at times.
       Kissing confusion on her forehead
       With self doubts being whispered in my ears.
I am determined always.
        To turn my luck around.
        To kill self defeating prophecies.
