Pretension

PRETENSION

                 Her indifference was merely a facade.
                   Her eyes glisten in passion
                    but denies in pretension.
               I am watching as critic since a decade.
                   Our unison is sure if I persuade.  

                I adore and carry my tingling feeling
                     I know she loves best,
                    but shows disinterest
          It is high time to honor her own yearning.
          Hers and mine should combine in our stepping.

        Not to try to act tact showing damn denial    
                     No need to be rough rude
                    She has crossed her childhood.
         No need to be strict on baseless refusal.
         Eager to see her in milk white dress; “Bridal”!

Eager to see her in milk white dress; “Bridal”! ... Wow... I always feel, limericks is a very versatile form of poetry. To confine it to slap-stick kind of ditties, I think, is wasting its potential.
