Singled out. The black hole.

He dresses trendy.

Office by day. Bartender by night.

Her attire describes her personality.

Dresses. Always with leggings. (Over)Accessorized jewelry. Occasional scarf.

They meet for a date.

Small intimate concert. Great hipster food.

Small talk. Leading to the ex girlfriend.

He’s newly single, like last week kinda newly. (Her eyes roll a bit)

And just like that he is ‘just Brad’.

Does everyone secretly still desire to be with their ex?

And if this is true, is the entire dating platform a farce?

A black hole in which so many have fallen into with no way out?

And if all in here are trapped, can we not all work together to break out?

She is ready to climb out.

Out of the black hole.

Forever.
