Dating Poem: More than Meets the Eye
So few of you
many more of them,
you need to be with someone who isn't enjoying sin.
One had me jumping for joy,
didn't play me like a toy.
Boy, oh boy!
He was that one they said,
"Ain't right, and he look white."
But that was alright.
Look I have been there, done that...
just sat and sat.
Brothers passed me by, said goodbye,
and one left me to die.
Been on the other side too,
where I was one of the few.
That one lied
and I just cried.
"Life is what you make it,"
so they say,
but many still have no wedding day.
They say, "It's okay...something good will happen today."
Yeah right, okay.
Look at you, what to do?
What is your view?
What do you desire?
Who will ignite your fire?
Why won't love last?
Has a lot to do with the past.
Keep waiting, keep dating
before long one will be mating.
Then what will he do,
lose love and sue?
What will she do,
find another to view?
Temporary fixes,
for modern day mixes.
Be with one for a hue,
doing what others do.
Look for something to wear,
after a stare, go bare.
Meanwhile, they dated on a dare.
Fools create all sorts of reasons
to date people in various seasons.
Then when goals are met,
on to the next date set.
