Poetry: A lack of love

by Brandi Finch

I never really knew how hard it would be
Finding someone who will just listen, hold, and love me
My search is still on but I'm growing weak
Watching everyone else love just makes my life seem so bleak
I'm finding it harder and harder to cope
After it died, my last glimmer of hope
After countless times listening to every love song
Maybe love plus me just equals wrong
My imagination fools my heart into thinking love is still out there
Afraid of rejection, i wouldn't dare
I wish my heart could only see
That i am destined to be lonely
