For the Birds

In a world of decayed morals Where change happens in a blink Choices are based on greed and sex Soulmates are all but extinct To say that people are joined at the hip It's only a temporary thing In these, "me first" times of self gratification One simply just takes off their ring Call yourself a hopeless romantic But not when it comes to love Soulmate is merely playing semantics And only pertains to doves

Thank you, Lynn. As you can tell, I am a little skeptical about relationships. Lol
