From a romantically challenged

By Pius Nyondo
 

Dearest,

I've tried enough

But still no relief

I'm still that love moron

Romantically impotent

 

Dearest,

But I tried

Liking her Facebook updates, commenting...

I called her, sent her something...

For her lipstick, leggings...

To no avail

 

Dearest,

Is it because I failed,

To tell her by word of mouth?

But dear,

You once told me,

That actions speak louder than words.

 

Dearest,

If it were an exam,

I would have failed.

Fortuanately it is not

It is just an art

Masquadering as love

 

Yours faithfully...
