What Is The Answer?

To describe my mind is easy to do.
It's on a perpetual wanderlust.
Beautiful women go to and fro,
And I simply never know.
Do they ever look at me?
Do they even give a damn?
How am I to fulfill the quest
Of procreating the human race?
What is the answer?
Surely, there's someone wiser than me.
I walk like a man and I talk like a man,
And yet, I just feel so damn insecure about it all.
I think that I know what love is,
And yet, nobody seems to be giving me a chance,
Thus, I am on a perpetual hunt for some answers.
What can I do? What can I say?
I'm here on a stump, still waiting today.
Flocks of the birds fly south for the winter,
Only to return and multiply in the summer.
I see this all the time, and yet, I never cry.
They say real men are sensitive,
That to be masculine means to cry,
And if that be the case, well, I guess I'll die without an heir.
