When I hear others talking about romance
Somehow can't relate or give my stance
After reading it in stories, still don't know
How such thoughts unveil in us and show
When I hear people saying they look hot
I find them cool, but attraction is felt not
Never tried to wait for a prince charming
Didn't dream of meeting a dear darling
I enjoy reading love stories, can't deny
Yet to see myself living that feels so dry
I like it when I see sweet couples loving
But wanted for myself no such feeling
How love even works? Someone do tell
Does it feel more like a heaven or hell?
Poets describe it with such fancy words
But that desire doesn't pull me towards
I haven't had a lover or crush till now
Should I feel weird about it or say wow?
The celebs I stan, I support like a friend
Difference in idea makes it hard to blend
Am I alright for not wanting such things?
Am I a bit different from other beings?
What's after like? How's it like to love?
Clear my doubts about all of the above
Rather have a friend or pet than lover
That's what mind gave me as an answer
It's not like I just haven't met the right one
But didn't ever think of having, I'm done

Everyone (including me sometimes) writes such fancy poems about love or heartbreaks, but I have never really seen one where the poet says they don't feel them. This poem actually describes my personal thoughts at times about romantic love too I can say.
I hope everyone is doing alright and taking good care of themselves
Have a nice day!💜💜
