A Heart Like Mine Poem by james d nall,jr

Romance is what I really like to do
But, it didn't make any difference to you
Flowers and candy, I thought would fit the bill
Instead you, put me through the mill

I'm looking for love in all the wrong places
Hoping to find happiness in different faces
But, sadness is all I seem to reap
When love is what I'm trying to keep

Someday, my mistakes won't be just that
You'll stop rubbing my face in the mat
I hope that then, you will see
I've tried to be the man, you wanted me to be

I give and give, but its never enough
It seems you'll keep treating me rough
I'm not a diamond or even a pearl
All I ever wanted, is you, girl
