The Ballad of a Bachelor

Slowly…
I am seeing things as they should be
Rather than how they could be
And I’m torn.

Slowly…
I’m coming closer to the ending
I’m done with pretending
You’re not gone.

Slowly…
I’m seeing through the haze of pretty
While weathering the gust of pity
Or maybe scorn.

Slowly…
I’ll be forced to leave
This place in my head called Make-believe
And watch porn.
