The Girl Who Quit

Love is such a rarefied thing

Breaking up hurts within

Loneliness turns us black

As we go on

Yearning for what we lack

There is then a girl who just quit

People tried to love her,

But she ripped them to bits

She once played the game

Now she doesn’t

And promises to never again

An ache has now become her being

She longs now to be touched and seen

But she is now known as the girl who quit

And quitters never win, you twit

People have long memories

Loneliness is not an incurable disease

All you need to do is

To look around and

Hold on to someone

For dear life

And thereafter whatever comes

Comes
