Across the
party, I looked at him and thought "How Gorgeous!"
Alas! But I
knew not him nor he me, how tortuous!
I wormed my
way into an introduction and decided that I was in love
But my
resolution lasted till he was pushed aside with a shove
For that
blue eyed guy in my neighbourhood I saw the next morning
And decided
that this time it's really true love, and I was still learning….
And then my
brother brought his best friend home
Looking at
him I though "He's my soul mate or I'll live alone!"
Obediently
to my instructions, I fell in love with him
Till I went
to school the next day and saw Tim
Tim, the
brilliant scholar, would be the best one to fall in love with
And with
this profound insight, for him my flame of love again lit
Oh! But that
evening my poor emotions could be moved no more
With me
falling in and out of love instantly, they were quite sore
Was I flirt,
a nut or an emotional fool, none understood what was wrong and why
You see, I
was just so much in love with the idea of falling in love that I'd grab almost
any guy
As you know
bad old habits die not at all
… hey, wait! I see the right one at last, oh! so handsome and tall…..
