Internet Dating...

Yes, ok, i admit it. I have dabbled in internet dating. But recently i have been proven wrong. This is true, and not just 'a story'.

“This will never work!” I say to myself

As I sign up to a dating site.

“But it worked for me, just wait and see.”

“Don’t be sceptical, just be practical.”

As I think that it’s a little irrational…

“There all after one thing

Not something everlasting!”

But try I must, at least.

As I update those endless pages…

‘Say something about you’

“Erm, no, I don’t want to!”

‘What are your interests?’

“Erm…how about stopping this stress…pest?!”

‘Upload a picture’

“What, so they can say, argh, what a creature?!

I don’t think so mate.”

But I ignore what is inside, and swallow my pride,

And type in those multiple words.

I feel it’s a waste of my rare precious time.

Yet i proceed and click ‘SAVE’ as the page it does change.

Nothing happens, only my opinions supported.

“What part of ‘no creeps please, I aint no sleaze’

Do you not understand?! And email me asking for…….Oh geeze!

Clears, classy one mate! I think it’s time I took a break!”

So I delete all accounts. And refuse to go back.

And months they do pass.

And time does fly fast.

And an odd email I still receive.

From the one Christian site,

That I couldn’t fully unite.

But ‘unknowingly’ kept it open.

A wave I received from a sweet looking chap

And I thought, well...here’s to hopin’,

As I clicked on, ‘wave back’ and there it did start

A friendship that is hard to depart.

"It’s been what, 2days?! This is crazy,” I say!

Only last week, I was head over heels

Over someone I could not ‘steel’!

But somehow we just…click,

Even though I was so sceptic.

As you come to me,

And allow me to see,

The person who I really am.

In these two days gone

I feel I belong

"But, agh, it’s so soon!

How can I be so out of tune?!"

As I attempt to control my soul.

Yet, attempt as I might

I cannot hold tight

To the feelings that have come into sight.

And you seem to share too.

The feelings that grew.

But restrained I must be.

I must wait and see.

If this friendship is anything more.

I must wait, to be quite sure.

 

“So, how’s the internet dating going…?”

“Well…only time will tell...”

Reviews

[OT]

oh here EH is again to show up my review!! don't you just hate that haha

You have a very endearing writing style!!! it all suits you naturally and you're getting stronger all the time - it's great to see!! technically sound I'd say - strong alternating rhyme scheme - a few couplets, triplets - it's all good!!! I like it! you're branching out all the time!! great!

Well they've said the lot! What a lot you have got!
Amazing write too. That certainly will do
To get better and better.
The words just keep flowing
But make sure you can keep going
With things more mundane
I know its a pain
But sleep too is needed
So advice to be heeded
And get to sleep fast
So the journey will last!

Now two thirty in the morning
and time for Bo Peep
To count some sheep
Good night!

Oh hell no.
There are more inner rhymes that Mother goose's under pants. This thing tells a story and does it with class.
And compounds it with hard hitting double and triple rhyme endings.
Lock, stock the f*****g lot.

Even the predictablke rhymes bring out the "cute" nature of the author and the innocence in the bliss.

This needs to be performed in a big bad way
