You were such a romantic
we were known as the duo dynamic
my love made you ecstatic
but lately you have been erratic
your ardour has become static
but today ain’t you being dramatic
declaring that I am not your type! How utterly pathetic!
Written for dVerse. Today’s host, De, says: I want you to play with some form of the word type in your piece: typing, typed, typewriter, typography, typist.Archetypal.
The pox (monkey) on bored lovers, who probably never were lovers at all. Get back out there. Your Lothario awaits.

The capriciousness of love is like biting down on a rotten grape. Narcissists do the love bomb and then start the punishment phase. Kick the punk to the curb!

Yeah, that is usually, how we all get bored with the love, the one we are, with, eventually, because everything becomes, too ordinary, aftwr that freshness wears, off…
