Testing Positive For Cupid-20

Will it be a fling? This ‘social distancing’ Or is it here to stay Like that hasty marriage Where both partners pay And before locking down The whole town It didn’t occur to you Even once How’ll those love birds Ignite their romance? But the Agony Aunts Please don’t commiserate These in-love fellas Will still have their date Do you really think 'Self-isolation' will do the trick Cure these love-sick You’re wrong They’ve always been doing Nothing else, but day dreaming Planning secret meetings Dodging prying eyes Inventing all those lies Poor thing Now he has tested positive Not for COVID-19 You stupid But CUPID-20 You knew He was vulnerable But smart that he is He’ll ensure It’s not uncomfortable And before you forcibly Take him away Just listen to What he has to say “Chill mate I’m ready to co-operate But with a condition The world I’ll shun But lock me up With her Let my Valentine Be my quarantine.”
