Didn't feel like it

because "the pen is mightier than the sword"

Mum believed men should be kept closely entwined 
because of the saying "out of sight out of mind" 
Dad urged I give them space and make them ponder 
because "absence makes the heart grow fonder"

I worried how I'd react to being charmed

Just as absence makes the heart grow fonder
Is this the reason couples fight and stray
Seeking their true love way out yonder?
