LOOKING FOR LOVE IN ALL OF THE WRONG PLACES

LOOKING FOR LOVE IN ALL OF THE WRONG PLACES

A Poem by Aileen

I’ve been looking for love in all of the wrong places

From thinking about it, my heart races

My throat is so tight; it’s tied like shoelaces

My eyes, cried out, from trying new faces

 

All over the world, I’ve been looking for love for my life to begin

Because being in love is not a sin

Whose heart will I win without them tossing mine in a bin?

 

So many times I’ve been mistaken

My hearts so burnt, it’s toasted like bacon

All over it, is written, "spot vacant"

For the right one, I’m trying to be patient

 

All my life, waiting for affection

I just need love, not perfection

For all the past abuse, there’s no exception

My children exist because of gods’ creation

For them being fatherless, there’s no explanation

The loneliness we feel, It’s no exaggeration

At the right time you will find your hearts desire. There is a saying that goes; 'You sometimes have to kiss a few toads, before you meet your handsome prince!'

Great poetic share, summarising the ups and downs of the search for true love. At least you have three blessings (the kids) to show for it all!
