Well folks, it has been brought to my attention, by so many people that I am always writing about love, well, it is time I prove everyone wrong.
I shall never write of love again
I shall never write of love again
my heart must learn new beats
I shall leave the romancing ballads
to Shakespeare, Wordsworth, Keats
I shall never write of love again
who cares of a poet’s lonely plea
or the sentiments he professes
while reciting on bended knee
I shall never write of love again
renounce love ’til my bitter end
I shall never write of….but wait
Alas, this poet did it once again
Lonely Author giggles……..
IN A VERY MANLY WAY
Hope I made you smile. Have a great week.
Witty! You can never write too much about love.

Lighthearted and funny and so well written! I hope you never give up writing about love. For people like me, it lifts my spirits and gives me hope that one day I will meet a man who has even a touch of the romance you have in you…and he will share it with me. Keep writing about what inspires you. It’s so wonderful to not read about the darkness in this world, but instead, read about romance and love. Never stop. xoxo

If they don’t want to see it, then don’t read it.
