I am the dreamer still naive enough to believe in "happy-ever-after" Known for many years that happy endings are unlikely and that even the best relationships/friendships  come to an end eventually I am wise enough to realize the difficulty of finding Prince Charming in today's cruel society Instead of  fairytale romance I grew up with we face a world strewn with sexting, online dating, and a myriad of other technology-polluted dating norms **** pics are plentiful and chivalry scarce Hungering for lustful acts of pleasure while I simply thirst for meaningful connection Gaining not one while those around me ravage conquest after ****** conquest Rather live a stoic empty life than one full of temporary careless moments forgotten before they are even completed So I wait to meet my knight In the barren fields of a loveless plane Carrying antique values like heavy sandbags A challenge to bear But providing necessary balance

I'm Not The Only One
I am the dreamer still naive enough to believe in "happy-ever-after" Known for many years that happy endings are unlikely and that even the best relationships/friendships  come to an end eventually I am wise enough to realize the difficulty of finding Prince Charming in today's cruel society Instead of  fairytale romance I grew up with we face a world strewn with sexting, online dating, and a myriad of other technology-polluted dating norms **** pics are plentiful and chivalry scarce Hungering for lustful acts of pleasure while I simply thirst for meaningful connection Gaining not one while those around me ravage conquest after ****** conquest Rather live a stoic empty life than one full of temporary careless moments forgotten before they are even completed So I wait to meet my knight In the barren fields of a loveless plane Carrying antique values like heavy sandbags A challenge to bear But providing necessary balance
