A Stranger to Love

Holidays like today remind me
of my perpetual singleness
as if I ever forgot.

 

The confidence of finding
my happily ever after
is at an all time low.

 

This hopelessness is
becoming a permanent
state of mind.

 

I'm giving up on love
because it's seeming
more and more like a myth.

 

The statistics speak
for themselves:
divorce is prevelant.

 

And due to my own experiences,
I just don't see forever
in my future.

 

My heart still hangs
to a glimmer of faith
in the fantasy of soulmates.

 

But it will take quite
the sweeping romance to
convince my mind otherwise.
