The Price Of Being Single Poem by MELVIN BANGGOLLAY

THE PRICE OF BEING SINGLE
Melvin Banggollay

S-ince the day, i was left alone in solitude
i behold a life to travel alone to unfold
the pain of sleeping with no companion
to fill the empty night with romantic illusion.

I cant sleep as I keep on painting the night
with songs of unending melody till limelight
only to behold upon my eyes a delusion
that i am now alone in solitude of oblivion.

N-o one witnessed how i build sleepless nights
with burning flames of a sorrowful plight
as i kept on reminiscing the life that i had been
in a woman's arm whose love is never serene.

G-od betowed upon me the power to be calm
and the magic to turn my prayers into psalm
as this challenge made me more stronger
to seek firmly the rainbow of a better future.

L-ove has the magic to heal every tragic
Even those that may turn one soul to be lunatic
as its wings of passion can build compassion
even to complete strangers building a new fusion.

E-verone deserves to love and be loved
even those like me with nothing more for love
for a soul like me deserves also to be happy
and dream upon the star a love with somebody.
