Single And Not Searching. Poem by Takunda S Chikomo

Single and not searching.

I was asked
How come u e
Most famous guy at school
Yet you claim to be single.

How come you're
The most talented guy
On the team
And yet...

I was asked how can you
Be single
On the whole campus
Yet you got all
It takes to sweep any chick
Off her feet,
Head over heels?
Wake up man
This is university
Smell the coffee.

I was asked
How can the CEO
Of such a big successful organization
Be found to be unmarried
Isn't that absurd?
Do you not know
That all the ladies are
Crushing on you down there?

I was asked
What exactly do you mean
You are single and not
Searching
Everyone is searching
How come not you?

To which i replied
I'm looking for someone
Who will love me
Without the fame
Without the money
Without the status quo
But with nothing.

Give me such
I will show you my wife.
