I know that you are out there

I can’t help but wonder where you are at.

I wish there was a way to find you

other than posting my profile on an an line-dating app.

How do we spend time together

when I feel such disconnect?

This is not what I expected

but I have become a nervous wreck.

How do I stop the isolation 

when I am distant from most stuff?

Do I believe in “meant to be”.

Two diamonds in the rough?

Some things are better left to chance,

others suggest I want to be alone.

I am not giving up hope,

sometimes I just want to stay up late, talking on the phone.
