Love Life of the Loveless

Alone in the park,
Heart still in the dark.

Turned a quick glance,
At her magnetic stance.

She was purring like a kitten,
I was instantly smitten.

Her soft perfumed hair,
Lingered in the air.

Lacking all shame,
I took steady aim.

Slinging Cupid's arrow,
With tip sharp and narrow.

Disgusted, she turned away;
As my shaft went astray.

Romance is wearing thin,
And I'm alone once again.
