A Poem: And so are the gays of our lives

In the realm of love’s pursuit, I tread,
Through the gay dating’s maze.
I bare my soul, vulnerable and true,
Hoping for a special someone to pursue.

With every step, emotions run deep,
Each encounter, a chance to sow or reap.
But if they wound me, oh, it stings so sore,
A pain that pierces my very core.

Yet still I ponder, is it worth this strife?
To navigate the tumultuous sea of life.
For love’s embrace, a treasure to behold,
Could it outweigh the sorrows that unfold?

In gay dating’s dance, I find my place,
A tapestry of hopes and dreams to chase.
Through highs and lows, I search for connection,
Yearning for love’s sweet, affectionate affection.

So though the road may be strewn with pain,
I’ll persevere, my heart shall not wane.
For in the quest for love, there lies a chance,
To find a partner in a tender, rainbow dance.
One Day, on that porch we’ll sit, hearts full and free,
Reflecting on the days that used to be.

With laughter and wisdom, we’ll reminisce,
Sharing stories of love, both hit and miss.
The trials we faced, the dreams we pursued,
Lessons learned, both joyful and subdued.

In the twilight of life, we’ll softly speak,
Recalling the moments that made us weak.
But through it all, our bond held us tight,
Guiding us through the darkest of night.

Together, we’ll gaze upon life’s grand show,
The highs, the lows, how the seasons did flow.
And as we sit on that porch, side by side,
Love’s tapestry painted in every stride.

For in our hearts, a lifetime is stored,
Memories cherished, forever adored.
And as we look back, hand in hand,
Grateful for a love that forever will stand.
