With Patience I Will Find Love

With Patience I Will Find Love

Sitting around collecting my thoughts
wondering how my life got here,
Single and not knowing why
wishing the answer would come clear,

So many failed attempts with love
but still willing to try once more,
Believing my princess is out there
watching through an open door,

The crystal ball we call faith
guides us towards a love near,
An open heart in darkness
carries us past fear,

Reaching out to grab the light
igniting the spark of love,
This hopeless romantic never quits
following guidance from above,

My thoughts are now collected
as clarity fills my heart,
Patience is the greatest virtue
now I can make a fresh start

    You have no idea how many people I meet in between relationships. You have at least analysed your own situation very well.

    ^^^ Posting works like 'Evil Goes Home' can't help out!

    ^^^ You are one of the few poets on this site that pays attention to beat & measure. I think that helps.

    The crystal ball we call faith
    ^^^ I like this!

    guides us towards a love near,
    ^^^ but this line seems awkward; the syntax is beyond comfort level

    An open heart in darkness
    carries us past fear,
    ^^^ these lines are powerful: keeping a heart open in the darkness - what a great image

    This hopeless romantic
    ^^^ Maybe something fresher?

    ^^^a poem with a drawn conclusion!
    Also rare. I salute you, sir.
