Troll
I can’t reveal what I really feel
as I troll through Goodreads and Book!
Here’s a nice face, in this social space,
but smarts is much better than look.
Not ready for any, and there are so many,
and I enjoy speculating and dream,
that an older bookworm, with a heart warm
will think I’m as nice as I seem.
I seldom reach out, so filled with deep doubt,
to any potential cute reader,
though once in a while, a comment I’ll style,
but I’ll hide before I ever meet her.
