Poem for the loveless

I write poems for the loveless likewise
never to be fated, in this existence,
chasing shadows like phantoms
disappearing from our reach.

Just like shadows walking inside cities
observing surely the beautiful
and distant in soul matching.

What will suffice the reason
to see if we can be together?

No one talks. No one talks.

In this world we pretend to be so far,
the young suffer heart problems
in a fleeting courtship chorus
the verse is only the pause,
society moves on, onto jobs,
onto mindless cowards wanting more,
onto seeing only the markets fall,
and what of this nuclear romance
appearing only in our spatial movies?

Our love life contains false actors portraying
how ideal life is so connected for a family.

Outside movie tickets is the wind,
the chilling air of single ghosts,
all hovering into twilights,
wanting something else.

So too is this world, prioritizing,
a product before a thought,
an idea that we could find love
before we're rich enough.
