I have discovered, I’m running on fumes.
An empty love tank?
It’s not all about gloom and dooms.
So with myself, I need to be frank.
~
What would fill my empty tank?
What traits do I seek from a romance?
There are things I’ve learnt from past relationships I can take to the bank.
Things that make my heart dance.
~
Don’t ignore me!
We are all busy.
Most of us, our time will flee.
The madness of life will make us dizzy.
~
I can buy my own things.
Help me.
Something different to the table can you bring?
The things I can’t do. Can you see?
~
But alas, here I am.
Empty? Not completely.
Chico helps the clouds scram.
Close friends make life sweetly.
~
God will guide me toward my valentine.
Bruce, Kip, Trent, or Larry.
All in due time.
I don’t have a name yet, this isn’t scary.
~
There are more things I need to learn about me.
It’s difficult to learn when you’re just trying to tread.
Life and love, there could be a he.
If not, it’s okay. My heart, God always will mend.
~
Flowers die. Jewelry gets lost.
In the words of Eliza Doolittle, ‘show me’.
I know there is a way to melt the frost.
Part of this we will need to do together to set love free.
~
An empty love tank doesn’t have to exist.
Not one but two tanks to fill.
A love of frost, rain and mist.
Overflowing, into the world a love to spill.
~
The End
