Where is The One?

Married

Convict

On the down low

Baby mama drama

Jobless

Unattractive

Unintelligent

Angry.

A selection of men

Given to the single woman

Who is

Single

Not in jail

On the up top

No baby daddy blues

Employed

Attractive

Intelligent

Happy.

Surfing on the Internet

Riding with party-goers

Watching men at work

Helping

Hoping

Wishing

Waiting

For the right one

The one

Who is just like her.

It isn't easy,

But good things are worth waiting for.

Did You Wrong by Pleasure P

Some Men Can't Break Up, Some Women Can't Let Go

Cheating,yelling, lying
cowards
can't tell you how they really feel
ignorant.

Let's play the guessing game
for five plus years
what's wrong
want to talk
what's on your mind?

Nothing he says.

Hugs rare
Kisses turned into pecks
No eye contact
Keep walking while talking
Silent.

We broke up after the first year
but I didn't get the memo.
Thought they were just relationship growing pains.
But he saw something different.

He said it isn't you
it's me.
I said it isn't me
it's you.

Too many men in the world without the baggage
they don't have his childhood wounds, relationship scars, mental issues
it's just too damn easy to move on...

So I'll stay
and he agreed.

This is our happily ever after.
