Does it exist i wish i knew,
will I find love?
I wish so hard, please do!

As you are

I know you would feel the same way,too.
You would go around feeling sad and blue,
And think

Quid; No Quo
For lack of any
credibility,
my prospects sink, again
as to the incident:
it wasn't what you thought
I never thought
