Looking For Love Poem by Gordon David

A feeling of undiluted rejection
Needing a little love, and some protection
Been looking in all the usual places
Only saw pity, not love in their faces
Keep trying so very hard to understand
Your reasons for not wanting to hold my hand
Get out of bed, and slowly walk down the stairs
Feeling hurt and lonely, but nobody cares
Yet again crying in the dark, all alone
A heart of glass turns into a heart of stone
I would not do to you, what you did to me
Suicide on the mind, yet you could not see
Not looking for pity, just some attention
Please do not reject my love and affection
Got to know if you’re seeing another man
Wedding vows, and wedding bands, flushed down the pan
