Today was a poetry day.  I hope you enjoy...


What is Love

Rosealee Lagace, 2012

They say there is always someone for everyone
The problem is finding that one
Kiss lots of frogs to find the prince… 
Does it really exist?

Through many trials and disappointments
Flooding tears and broken hearts
I still search for the one

Although each love is an experience
Something to make me grow,
To gain a better understanding of who I am
And who I want to become

I can’t help but feel frustrated.
Why is this so hard?  What am I doing wrong?
Am I really so unloveable that a good man doesn’t want me?
 
A friend once told me men are like parking stalls
All the good ones are taken, all that’s left are the handicapped.
Many days I feel this is far too accurate,
And my fears of finding no one are far too real.
 
Do I settle because I am afraid to be alone?
Do I seek comfort from others that can’t commit?
What am I really afraid of? 
Love? or loving me?
