Double Negatives

She’s a no love seeking-
Fairytale believing-
Or late night romance-
Novel type reading-
Kind of girl.
Of a perfect man she is never dreaming.
Full of cynicism or so it is seeming,
That she cares for no man at all.

She has mastered the one night stand,
Designed the format and follows the Plan:
“Never kiss on the lips or hold on to hands;
No love allowed-nope! Not At all.”

She keeps a few in rotation
And all at a distance.
Remains unattached
So she won’t miss them.
Plays the good guys out,
So she don’t feel the urge to fix them;
Then drops them with no remorse at all.
But deep down she’s just really tired,
Of all the games and all of the liars.
Truth is–she is looking to feel inspired
But has had no luck at all.
