Elucidating Questions

What’s your definition of romantic?

I don’t know

I’ve never once in my life known romance

You see it in media

But fiction makes romance seem

I dunno like it’s everyone’s destiny or something

It’s not

Some of us will never know what it’s like to be loved

Cherished

And just that truth

Stops me from even pretending to imagine what romance would feel like to me

I’ve lived my entire life without it

Watching others having it around me

Romance would seem to be to be when you decide some person is better than all the other people in your life because you can have sex with them

I would say I don’t have need for it

My if I didn’t my heart wouldn’t ache as it does

My body is useless so my selling price is reduced

And my face is unfortunate

These things do not get romance

Or maybe it’s just not for me

Who knows

It’s not really anyone’s fault that I’m ugly and sexless

So why would it be?

Maybe romance would just be someone who notices me

Really does

If it ever were a thing

I kiss the stars goodnight

And the Sun

It seems so cruel to even subject myself to the hope of there being someone who would notice me enough for romance to even be possible

There’s no reason

But they all seem to enjoy it until they don’t

So all the power to them and their romances

Would I even recognise it?

As it always is I am here

Where I always am

Romance seems like something that happens to other people

So I just watch them and wish them well
