I Am Single! Poem by Randy McClave

I am single!
Because no-one takes relationships seriously anymore,
They take it as a game to cheat and mingle
And then to go to another person's door.
I am treated like the game of catch,
I am seemed always to chase, and then to fetch.

I am single!
Because people would rather cheat than to work it out,
Then they would just lie and mingle
Then take a different route.
They are the true hypocrite,
They only love and care for there own need and benefit.

I am single!
Because I know that people will lie and disappoint,
They later will sit and mingle
Unto their own sins they will always anoint.
I will not ever disappoint or lie,
You can always see that truth in my eye.

I am single!
Because, I hate ending up looking stupid,
Your friends can lie and mingle
I honestly thought that I was sent to you by cupid.
You alone and our future was my goals,
Not parties, or that of wanting of other souls.

I am single!
Because trust is not a foreign word to me,
You can read books and mingle
Besides the definition, there is my picture in the dictionary.
In my partner I will always have that trust,
And like gold it will never fadeaway or rust.

I am single!
Because chasing anyone is just a game,
Everyone gasps and mingle
But, a while back I stopped playing that sport I did proclaim.
If you don't want to be honest and spiritually part of my life,
I don't need those childish games or the strife.
