You have to kiss a lot of frogs
Things are never what they seem
Last month I wrote a story about my experience with dating sites:
Finding a new partner seems to be worse than 'Mission Impossible.'
Here is a poem I wrote about all the scammers that seem to pollute dating sites.
****
I’d like to step inside your mind,
Even for one day,
To see what bullshit I could find,
Is there any truth in what you say?
👨👨🦰👩👩🦳👨🦱👩🦰
You pretend that we’ll be cosy,
But I doubt that’s how it will be,
A life that is warm and rosy,
I don’t see that for you and me.
👨👨🦰👩👩🦳👨🦱👩🦰
You talk about the future,
And how different it will be,
Well, that sounds really super
But you’ve never set eyes on me!
👨👨🦰👩👩🦳👨🦱👩🦰
The new dance in conversation
Dance in sexy, small talk at best
Designed to stimulate my imagination,
And get me all obsessed.
👨👨🦰👩👩🦳👨🦱👩🦰
And then comes the clanger
Can you give me a few bucks
You’re nothing but a scammer
God, this dating game sucks!
👨👨🦰👩👩🦳👨🦱👩🦰
Till next time
