Single Life: A Depressing Poem.

I felt a little creative today and my emotions always get the better of me whenever I'm creative.

Single Life: A Depressing Poem.

I wake up in the morning, tired but not sad.

A new day is beginning, it always makes me glad.

I drive to the campus, I sit in a chair.

Reading my book, trying to be there.

My mind is racing, with thoughts and ideas.

But everyone's scared to remember what's real.

Iphones, and laptop's, electronics and more,

we are one-dimensional beings. Nothing more.

Never time to play, because we have school all day,

We work during our free times, just to get paid.

Conversations are only five minutes long.

The interest is certain, but never is strong.

I bury myself in what I read and what I write,

but I can't ignore smiles walking by holding hands tight.

My hands have been cold, never held for five years,

on to the sixth, loneliness cheers.

I've tried my best, to be a wonderful guy.

But every women I've met bare's a shallow eye.

Nice guys finish last, like I always will.

Because I never seem to fit anyone's bill.

Bodies of hourglasses, and flat muscled chests.

Love only applies when you look the best.

Beauty is evil because it always comes first.

You are blessed to possess it, but if not, it's a curse.

Romance is dead, love exists in the bed.

We are beautiful once, before we die, it'll be dead.

Maybe I'm wrong or I'm just depressing.

But the beautiful people still act all oppressing.

I hopelessly hope for someone in my life.

I pray to God one day, I find her. But not tonight.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.
