Lonely Poem

Why haven't I found love yet?

What Is Love

© Ronita Lee
What Is Love ?
and why does love never find me
Instead Broken Hearts Surround Me
And once again the wrong man found me
Saying he wouldn't hurt me
but in the end he didn't deserve me
What Is Love?
and why doesn't love know my name
I prayed to god that it would change
But true love never came
What Is Love?
I ask myself time after time,
why is love so blind,
or I shouldn't waist my time
I guess Broken Hearts are only made for me,
Because love finds everyone else but love never found me....

  • This poem is so true. Love is everywhere except near me. I'm always falling for the wrong person but those who I like never notice me at all.

  • When I read this poem, a thousand memories started to flow through my mind, Everytime I have almost come close to that special someone, they slip away. This poem is so extremely true for a lot of people, but someday love will find everyone, they just got to open up to the pain and allow themselves to be hurt so somebody can come along and heal them with their love.

  • This poem really touched me. 17 years and love never found me, it makes me feel so alone. I'm crushed every time I see two people together and realize that can't be me.

  • Very good depiction of what I myself have been through for years....I did pray to God for a long time to change it and let Love find me, but in vain! Finally, gave up praying and believing in God...felt much better after that, as I started believing in myself!

    Patricia, I can understand how it feels....you expressed it the exact way I feel too, when I see two people together....I feel so helpless and realize that it can't be me....

    And hey Chester, what you said is quite encouraging...."I will no longer look for Love, I will let it find me."

    I think I should start doing it too....!

    Cheers to everyone!!

  • Is it so wrong to want the other half of your heart? I have searched all my life and in the end came up with nothing except being deceived by people I thought at one time loved me. I so wish with all my heart I could find my soul mate. Perhaps it is not to be.
