Slim Chance

Contributed by AndyRaw on Monday, 19th December 2011 @ 03:12:59 PM in AEST
Topic: LovePoetry

The thought of my future wife scares me to think about
The notion that a girl could love me whole births enormous doubt
There’s a small chance of me finding a girl willing to become my wife
I think that they would see it as throwing away their life

For I am unstable and weak
And I am not trying to be meek
I am a mess and monster all wrapped together
There are things in me that I can control as much as the weather
Dark things hide within me which I don't even know
It is from the core of my selfish heart that these things flow
I tend to over think
I can be attracted by the drink

These things create muddy waters which she has to wade through
After seeing all of this how could she not change her view?
With all of these faults in her mind
I don't think there will be a girl left to find
How could I convince someone to love me?
For when I look in the mirror even I don't like what I see

I don't think I posses the capability to love a girl like I should
Even though I sure wish that I could
But a great gap divides my intentions and execution
And this significantly lessens my contribution

The chances of a girl staying after seeing me for what I am are dim
The chances that she would want to bear my burdens are slim
But if there is a girl who can love me faults and all
Then what love I do have I will not stall
Without a doubt she will be a God-send
She would be worth more money than anyone could spend
I will push all of my chips into the center
Knowing that without a doubt I am a winner
For the greatest lottery I will have just won
Because the chances of a girl like this existing are less than none

A great piece and I saw a lot of myself in this aswell. I feel the same as you.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
