"Sometimes we stare so long at a door that is closing that we see too late the one that is open." — Alexander Graham Bell
I’m the kind of girl who
left too many opened doors.
Till it was time to close them all,
no more saboteurs.
It’s not that any of them
were really bad, you see.
But there’s no love lost here,
that I can guarantee.
I’m my own worst enemy
with matters of the heart.
So hear me out with my story,
in all or in just part.
My tales are true,
how many lessons relearned.
Just sought after love,
leaving no stone unturned.
It all started many years ago
with one dear old ‘friend.’
We had such a good thing,
then oh what a bitter end.
He’d long since moved away,
we’d be parted for years.
To reconnect after decades
among the castles and piers.
Then there was the guy
with the sweet poker face.
Easily swayed by his warm kiss,
touch and embrace.
What he lacked in connection,
some may not mind.
But for me, in his lack of presence,
I had to decline.
Another good lover
unfortunately needed disposal.
I was not a priority, and
would never see a betrothal.
Reconnected sometime later,
on an exotic getaway.
Saying no to his advances,
I’d do the same today.
A player or two has
charmed me now and again.
Like the sporty businessman
who always had a plan.
Those plans didn’t include me,
still so hard to resist.
He came calling again,
and I said, no thanks narcissist.
The boy toy was fun,
whenever he was available.
Though he’d always run,
deeming himself unobtainable.
We had good sexy times, a
nd pure magnetic synergy.
All take, no give, grew old...
so now just a memory.
Dark foreign man
you love bombed me like crazy.
Great sex, gifts and pleasures
trying to tame me.
But when your possessiveness
reared its ugly head.
Had to get away, and
find someone better instead.
Perhaps some doors were
left wide open for too long.
But now I’ve closed them all,
and learned to be strong.
Just take it from me,
life offers many a second chance.
Doors closed, all ties are broken,
it's time for true romance!
