Lonely Heart’s Lament

 

I am adrift
On an ocean wide
I see someone
Hope is thus spied

I have oars
A motor, too
But I cannot use
Either of these two

It’s a handicap
On myself I place
I have arms and knowledge
To enter the race

But I lack courage
To get close to you
Whoever you are
It makes me feel blue

So adrift I will stay
Alone on my boat
With only one hope
To keep me afloat

That someday I’ll see
Another rafter somewhere
That I’ll finally approach
If I could only dare…

Just the usual sad and sorry bit of lonely verse.  Later, I will go to Wally World where there are at least two lovely ladies I would like to ask out but will never have the guts to actually do so.  Or the waitress at the restaurant I’ll be going to before that.  No, there’s not a rational explanation for that.  After all, I asked Bob out, why not one of these girls?  Sigh.

 

Meanwhile, as I actually managed to post yesterday, I’ll not give any Nothing Day updates today.  Not that there’s any to give.  See you Monday.
