Written On July 9, 2007

I wanted to find love
The one time I thought I had
It turned out so bad
It has been 5 years
Since this day in time
My heart is barely holding on
To my hope of ever finding
The love my parents
Have had for going on 37 years
And my sister has had for going on 15 years
Also the love my brother
Has had coming up on 9 years
My hope in finding a love
That will last through time
Is slowly fading
As the years keep on passing by

When the family is together, the soul is at peace - Russian Proverb

Ah, took me three tires. Life's not over. Of course you probably thought that in four years ago.

Thank you all for your nice comments. Sometimes I still feel like this but not as often as in the past. Almost 32 years old and I am still single but loving it now. LOL
