Swipe Indefinitely

Douse out on some cloud nine,
Let good feelings numb this mind,
Emotions running out of bind,
These heartaches out of line.

Feelings of unnoticed existence,
Marred labels impressioned by others,
To be able alone but not lonely,
Back and forth, disillusioned miseries.

Once loyal on the author's side,
"Looks don't matter but Heart does",
Now perplexed at the unakin reality,
As it was told by one who had both.

Swiping right to the heart's content,
Now await the idyllic dance,
Swiped left on discontent,
Recycle the hopeful trance.
