The Romantics

I wonder why romantics are called fools,

To open up your heart that wide, is in reality very very cool,

There's a 50% chance of meeting the love of your life,

And there's a 50% chance of your life going up in smoke and strife,

This doesn't stop the romantics though,

To keep going with the flow,

I'm convinced it's the ones of us with a broken heart,

That always wants to stay put and not dart,

We don't give up without a fight,

Until the very end is at sight,

To keep showing up, 

And never giving up,

Despite the very obvious cracks,

I think that's courage, to it's very max,

Doesn't hurt to be born into a family of fighters,

Each disappointing chapter, only makes me brighter,

I'm going to unburden my heart now,

Release and allow,

The memories to become a distant dream,

You did good heart, we make a great team.
