Singular

Sometimes
She gets upset
Jealous even
Knowing it's a wasted emotion
Human part of her frailty
Her femininity
See
She's still single
Waiting
for the proverbial
One
Cloaked stranger
Elusive avenger
maybe he's locked away
Because crime pays
Or rather it keeps
Black families in chains
Separates the eligible men from
the sistars
Only trying to win
But then again
Maybe the one is already
linked up with another
But that don't really stop him either
Wanting their
Cake
Icing a
And the cherry too
Acting like they exclusive too
With you
But they're lying
Leaving her wondering
Why
She can't see him
When she wants
To
He's home with his family
While she's sitting watchin' Scandal
lonely
Then there's the other one
Who can't make up his mind
Cuz he got baggage
just like you
He says and does all the right things
Thinks of you often
But not enough to call her wifey
Just when y'all laying up
Booing you up
Thinking they're really an item
But he's frontin cuz
He's just not
that into you
So when she see's people coupled up
She can't stunt
She's hating a little
but then
She realizes her worth
It's more than settling for some
BS
Or even stressing
Over what she thinks somebody else has She's gonna stay content being she
Keeping herself company
Staying happily single
But every once in awhile
It won't hurt
For her to mingle
