So Free!

Not strong, all wrong
a relationship didn't last very long.

Content with being single,
avoided places to mingle.

There was too much pain and stuff,
her poor heart yelled, "Enough is enough!"
So relieved to be over them,
especially that Worst Him!

For that mean one brought so much heartache,
spent years acting joyous and fake!
Men like him, come in every make--
gullible hearts they like to take.

So free to be a beautiful me!
No longer having to fight,
no longer out of sight.

Don't have to worry about who, what or when,
a heart no longer made of tin.

It is finally a good time in my life,
so over the ugly and depressing strife!

It's been a long time since I could smile,
oftentimes felt like I run a mile.

Sleepless nights, internal fights,
bad dreams...as trivial as it all seems,
yet someone, somewhere is in a
relationship with a lover who doesn't care.

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.
