My Love Odyssey [Poem]

In this vast world, love's like seekin' treasure lost,
Thirsty for affection, all you find are mirages tossed.
Through the sands of loneliness, you stumble, lost in strife.
Longin' for an oasis, a haven from this life.

Lost in a maze, no map, no trail to follow home,
Each failed relationship leaves you more alone.
Once you thought you found it, a spark to set aflame,
But like a dying ember, it vanished just the same.

Others find love easy, like it's waiting' by their door.
But for you, it's like chasin' rainbows, evermore.
You wonder if love's meant for souls as broken as your own.
Or just a fairy tale, for others, not your own.

You try to tell yourself, It's better to be alone.
But deep inside, you ache for love to call your own.
Craving that connection to fill the empty space,
Longing for someone to see your flaws and grace.

So you keep on searchin', clingin' to hope's last thread,
Swipe through endless faces, prayin' to be led.
Blind dates and heartaches, tryin' to ignore the doubt,
That gnaws at your soul, leaving' you without.

But you don't give up; no, you keep pushin' through.
Believe' in a love that's meant for only you.
Someone to hold you close through the darkest night,
To be your beacon, your guiding light.

So you keep on lookin', wishin', and thinking' it's close by.
Like a game of hide and seek, under the endless sky,
I hope to find that love before my tears run dry.
