Don’t Search for Love

In searching for love

You’re wasting your time.

For love is elusive

And ever abusive

To those craving love.

A shame and a crime.

 

Love will see though you,

Avoid and elude you,

Come not to your calling,

It will always be stalling

And never come calling

To enthrall and amuse you.

 

Love hates being ignored.

Dislikes being bored

By those not having any,

Not paying a penny

For it nor cares of the many

With love on board.

 

Show that you care not,

And don’t need it a lot.

Will make it most curious,

Mad and most furious

With desire not spurious.

It wonders, \"Why not?\"

 

Then matters not what you do,

It will surprise and come to you
