Life too short for you and me

I am not the man,
You are looking for,
Cant say I undertand,
Your reason and excuses anymore,

I am no sly Casanova,
Nor a devilish Count Drakcula,
Muscles are hidden from prying eyes,
I Dont even live a secret double lives.

I am not tall,dark or handsome,
Dont even live in a cosy home,
And then there are the social impact of being with me,
A beauty in lock arms with an ugly beast.

Will not her friends and family,
Look down and ridicule her for choosing me?
At the sight of trouble I flee,
Is that a weakness she will see?

I take heart that many men are like me,
All much better than me but still single,
So why is it so hard to choose a company,
For life is too short for you and me.

About this poem:
Is not only about me but as a whole so many are still singles ..
I find in many profiles that they are not fussy nor get their hands dirty ...and some too good to be true but all are in the same boat!!!
Something is very wrong ..
Flirt if you have to ..Dont wait for them to make the 1st move and for god sake ..rejection is not the end of the world...
And ladies say what you really mean ..not play with words and feelings .also tell the guys why they are not a match instead of ...i am not good for you ..excuses

I always wondered, why young people are here on this site. I mean, why are they here for the purpose of finding a match? This site would not be a better place without them, of course, for they are the gems of life everywhere. But is not the young age of itself a passport to true happiness? I read many of them complain of God only knows what - things that matter less I am sure. Is not the young age itself a solution for no matter what complications?! I can understand those coming for entertainment (there is more to this site than simply looking for romance). But I can't understand what makes the young complainers look gloomy and unhappy. This is not the first time I ask this question, once I even tried to cheer them up with a poem, and this is what I was thinking about when viewing young people's photos on CS:


I Wish

I wish I were as young as you, the ones looking so nice,
I wonder what has made you think you’re not so loved and bright,
I wish I were as young as you, you, looking from these photographs,
You, thinking all’s in vain – you, thinking all is vice.

I wish I were as young as you, the ones who’re thinking life
Has dealt them blow – the first love’s passed, fulfillment not their right.
I wish I were as young as you to tell you what is nice,
Life’s beautiful for you because you’re young and bright.

I wish I were as young as you, young people gathered thus,
You, so enchanted with first love, don’t think it’s only one,
I wish I were as young as you to tell you, cheer up and try,
Your worries seem so petty ones, don’t think of life as past.

I wish I were as young as you, you, beautiful and full of life,
All in your life's so new, so hard to bear, find,
I wish I were as young as you, you looking from these photographs,
I wish you knew how much depends on first steps in your life.

Young people, cheer up, stand right, remember life is not so hard,
You have it all in front – great span – just make it right and dare.
The feelings you are here to find, the faces you are here to love,
The love you are about will come when you expect them less.

But this is my personal opinion of course. Young people have all the rights to seek wherever and whatever they like. And I wish them all the luck in the world! Cheers!wine

to play mind games with anyone's head is cruel --to mess with someone's feelings is equally cruel
You are so right Morgan --everyone should be honest and upfront about what they are looking for ! Honesty is better for all concerned in the long run !
Well done you ! best wishes .. Serenity handshake

Now it's my turn Morgen,
You gotta be kidding me mister.
YOU should have 50 babies . You are , we are handsome men. Your perfect glue will find you n ' together you will be.

I feel your deep down carved emotions my dear Morgen. But why the degrading and so belittleing so much of your self worth? Let them be the judge to that. All of us are created with all the different features and compositions and believe me the positive impact on one's personality will never be overlook. I have seen so many who's feature in physical aspect would not be that of Cleopatra or Mark Anthony but by golly, the love they emit is as hot as the burning lava of Mt. Kilimanjaro, Mt. Fuji, Mayon Volcano (dealy) and so on and so on.

And you Ancient Bullman is in the front line of a very desirable being..as a friend and as a human being and I am sure she that will be lucky for you will see all your good traits...

God Bless

Will not her friends and family,
Look down and ridicule her for choosing me?
At the sight of trouble I flee,
Is that a weakness she will see?

I take heart that many men are like me,
All much better than me but still single,
So why is it so hard to choose a company,
For life is too short for you and me.
