Loveless

Loveless

A Poem by John Stussy
"

Idk...

"

I’ve been told I can’t

Love another person

Until I can learn

To love myself as well.

I guess it's set in stone

That love should evade

My darkened heart

Through all of that is time.

 

I’ll walk alone

On these cold streets

Searching for the reason

I see myself this way.

The loneliness closes

And I’m strolling in the dark

Looking for an answer

In the bleak November rain.

 

No answer comes to me

In this time alone

So I guess it’s meant

To be alive without

A heart to love since

I’m one unlovable.

Time will fade away

And it’ll take away my pain.

 

The one person I hate

Will disappear from here

And my horrible rage

Follows me to the grave.

 

I’ll walk alone

On these cold streets

Searching for the reason

I see myself this way.

The loneliness closes

And I’m strolling in the dark

Looking for an answer

In the bleak November rain.

 

The loveless un-wonder

Fades away in good time

And in the end I know

Nobody will be mine.

There’s no hope,

No grace, no chance

For the man who’ll never dance

On the floors of confidence.

 

I’ll walk alone

On these cold streets

Searching for the reason

I see myself this way.

The loneliness closes

And I’m strolling in the dark

Looking for an answer

In the bleak November rain.

 

I’ll disappear, fade away

In the bleak November Rain.

I'll say what you kind of said to me. Love=Truth, and there is someone for everyone out there, you just have to wait till they FIND you. Desperately searching for someone, will end in a horrible way, in most cases but not all.

I enjoyed reading this poem, it was lovely!

If you think you're alone, you're right. You cannot find faults unless you look for them. Sometimes all we need is to open our eyes and see who stands by us. Great, powerful write.
