The Search For True Love Continues! ! ! Poem by Compton Wright

Wow it been a while since true love have shown itself to me
As it been about a good 10 years
That I searched through this world
From the forest of envy and jealously
And the land of depression
I was walking in a maze
With no exits or hints
to help out the problem

It so frustrating seeing me in the mirror
Seeing the different women I’ve dated
All come to life as each one whispers the same quote
Do you love me CJ? Or do you care about me?
I would say yes but if I did than
I’ll be feeding them lies to their faces….

Sudden sadness to the heart bring extreme pain
As each and every one of them took a piece of me
To keep and to remember the good times we had
But even than I tend to lose myself as
If I let everyone have a piece of me I’ll be nothing

Sometimes in my bed I only think of my true love
Like what would she look like well she’ll normal…?
Or will she’ll be an angel or a goddess in disguise
Still a man can dream about his life and his future
Love why you make it so hard to achieve you
I put more effort into you than the schoolwork itself
So true love is like my life’s goals believe it or not

Some call me a fool for chasing for love
That can’t be capture by any men or women
But I told them all that I would prove them wrong
I tried to found different ways to be a gentleman
What excites or attracts them to bring love in their hearts
From smarts, personality, and looks but all failed in my way
Maybe I was going after the wrong girls or maybe it's me…
Do I have to climb the mountains of despair?
Or swim through the waters of broken heart tears
Either way I’m determined to reach and grab

But as life goes on and my heart becomes more fragile
My mind starts to ask itself is love really worth the effort
I only ask my readers or my family to answer this question
Regardless my search continues on with no telling
When this crazy roller coaster of love and lust will
Ever have its way of having neither an ending nor a stop
To this journey for...true love
