"In the end, it's still best to wait for the one we want rather than settle for what's available. It's still best to wait for the one you love rather than to settle for the one who's around. It's still best to wait for the right person, because life's too short to waste on the wrong one."


(Verse 1)
Around Chad
I can be mad,
sometimes Sad,
and even Glad,
But don’t tell my dad.

He only wanted one thing.
He kept me on a string.
He gave me a ring.
He loved that I could sing.
He bossed me like he was a King.

(Chorus)
I was so wrong!
He was just playing me all along.
And I just went along.
Where do I belong?
And then I heard it, my song.

(Verse 2)
I am a grad,
and I sure was glad.
I’ve moved on to Brad.
If only I had,
listened to my dad.

I look back on High School.
I was just his tool.
How could I have been such a fool.
I thought he was cool.
I should have obeyed my dad’s rule.

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
Brad wasn’t the One.
Love and I must be done.
I’m going to end up as a nun.
I just want to have some fun.
Then I met the “Son”.

He was very romantic.
His name was Rick.
He was there for me when I was sick.
He says if I was the last one on earth it wouldn’t matter; it would be I who he would pick.
I’m glad he isn’t like the other guys who were such a dick.

(Chorus)
I was so wrong!
He was just playing me all along.
And I just went along.
Where do I belong?
And then I heard it, my song.

(Verse 4)
My song gives me a reason to live.
I heard it when I was five,
after my mother died when she went out to drive.
I don’t want to be alive!
I know what I have to do, and that is to survive.

I am just getting tired of,
All this c*** and their gifts I must get rid of.
I am deserving of.
All this might be undreamed of,
but I will find true love.

(Chorus 2X)

Love is like a staircase...you take steps. You might be going down or up. You might fall down. You might need that rail to hold onto. I wrote this while sitting on my staircase.

it could use a little less rhyming, true, but the fact you made a poem rhyme for that many lines is pretty nice.
