Left or Right?

Left or right? Looking for a simp. Left or right? Sesh with me? Left or right? Left if you’re shorter than 5’10. Left or right? Bonus points if you inked. This is what I think about when I think about love. Left or right.
I was in love, or at least I think I was. My love lasted for three years before it was shattered, for three years I enjoyed the unconditional love I shared with her. I know it was love because it was the same love that my dog shares for me. It is weird to say that I loved someone like a dog loves me but it’s the closest thing I got for an example. The love I had was the same because as soon as she walked through my door, I smiled. If my phone buzzed, dopamine would rush through my brain and I would smile again because I knew it was her leaving a message. No one else texted me, everyone else sent me snapchats or email and those did not buzz. In the few photos we captured together, I could see my smile and I have only seen that smile in one place before. That smile is the same that my dog has when I walk through my front door at the end of each day. That is why I believe it was love that I felt for this girl.
But that girl is gone now, and the love did not last. I am left with disappointment each day and the idea that love is behind the next left or right. It is a desperate hope but a hope that keeps me busy. Left or right is the pattern each morning till I either run out of rights, run out of energy, or run out of time. I stay away from that pattern for the rest of the day and repeat the next morning. At this point, left or right could still be a hope for me but it could also just be a distraction. It is a way to keep me occupied, to slow down my mornings until I muster the energy to begin the day.
Left or right? Not on here often so msg insta or snap. Left or right? Dad jokes only please. Left or right? Break my back, not my heart. Left or right?
I know how to gain the system of left or right but I question if I should. Would it feel right for myself? Would they be upset if they found out? I cannot bring myself to cheat the system even though I know I am just a small fish in a very big pond. I must be myself and stay true, do not gain the system.
Long brown hair, blue eyes, and the most beautiful smile. She likes football, I have no clue about it. Studying sciences that I know nothing about. Left or right? Right.
