Image for the poem True Love

True Love

I know it exists
It’s just out of reach
It has to be real
Because there’s so many songs about it
So many poems about it

Why does it seem so impossible for me?
It’s so easy to disbelieve
So hard to achieve
I’m ready to be
Truly in Love

I’ve seen it in others
I’ve tried it many times
With many different women
But it’s proven to be elusive
I’ve yet to choose wisely
When I’ve made these women exclusive
The only evidence that’s conclusive
Is that I’m the common denominator

My bleeding heart my incriminator
Not allowing me to act on my thoughts
I know she’s not the one
But I try not to be “That Guy”
Instead I try to make it work
Always to find myself unhappy

But there has to be
Somebody for Everyone

I hope you find your One

I’ll keep searching…


But I’m afraid that I’ll never be

Truly In Love
