WLTM
The trouble with the dating game...
Rated:

Avg Rating: (6)
We both removed our roses
From the pins in our lapels
Sighed, shrugged and rolled our eyes
Watching the petals as they fell

"Fancy a pint, then?" she resigned
"Why not," I half replied
And we both raised a glass to True Romance

I knew that I had gone too far
Listing me as TDH
When I stated sense of humour
It was her mistake to make

"So hows the altitude down there?"
She asked, stealing my peanuts
And we both raised a glass to True Romance

WLTM a carefree soul
Of youth, beauty and grace
Yet here I sat with Monica
Nuts and beer crammed in her face

"Never mind me - how's Miss USA?"
She dug her heel into my trainer
And we both raised a glass to True Romance

My stomach crunched, I watched her tear
It shouldn't be this way
We both had lied and tried to cheat
The bed in which we lay

"Come on, let's go and just pretend
That neither of us did this."
And we both drained a glass to True Romance


TDH - Tall Dark and Handsome
WLTM - Would love To Meet
