Once again I thought that you might be the one
That one that I been searching for in every man since 2001
Yes
Every man
And I can sit here and lie and say
My famous line-
You seemed different
But the fact of the matter is-
All of ya’ll are different
From each other
I can sit here and stroke your ego and say –
You were the best
But all of ya’ll been pretty good
At one thing or another
I could also sit here and say that my search is going to
Stop
Because I’m tired
Of getting my heart broken
But truthfully
Honestly
I swear to goodness
It will only get stronger
I will only search harder
Deeper
I only have one question though
Is it me?
Or is it ya’ll
Seems as though when the going gets tough
And things get serious
The men
They
Disappear…
Never mind- don’t answer that
I have my answer
So, man
Have a good life
I hope you find what it is that you’re looking for
And don’t worry about me
I always get what’s good for me
I guess
Ya’ll must not be that good
Gotta say, I love this poetic piece.. Being a guy, you might think us (us being Ya'll in this poem =) ) would be offended, but truthfully, I was not. I found it... not humorous but i was grining and smiling... basically because its true (plus i love the word ya'll) I am northerner that moved southern. More than that though I LOVED the fact, you didn't put our flaws on your shoulders. You raised the question though. It shows your strengths not only as a writer, but as a women. Loved it. and just to let ya know, not all guys are like the ya'll guys
