gotten used to being alone

Folder: 
My trashcan poetry

I no longer seek the feelings I once needed so desperately
or search beneath the white capped waves of humanity
for the fabled one

There is no one single person wrapped all in the white linen's
representing the purity of true love
Who is searching through the darkness for me

I no longer need the warmth of a woman's body
to get me through the night
praying in desperation this will be the one
to many times the flames of hope took hold
only to burn out in the night

Everything that represented the love of a woman in my life
has been taken away in one form or the other
till I'm old
an the feelings are no longer needed
for I have gotten used to being alone
