Going Slowly

Met her online, she seemed very nice.
As it turned out I should have thought twice.
Used and abused then left in the end,
My broken heart took a while to mend.

After some time another I met,
Perfect we seemed, at least on the net.
As it turned out I wasn't her man,
Though we're still friends, it's not what we planned.

Whirlwind romance sure can be a thrill,
But when it ends, it leaves you unfilled.
I have now learned the real value of,
Taking my time in matters of love.

So I still seek to find my true heart,
Could it be her, or will we soon part?
Guess time will tell and then we'll know,
But we've agreed, we're taking it slow.

I don't believe you have it in you to take anything slow, somehow.You are one of life's slashers, wading in when everyone else is still feeling the temperature with their toe, and why not really? If you look at statistics then the time must be coming for you to score an ace. Keep us updated! Best of British!flirty

It's true that the best things are worth waiting for. Instant gratification is so alluring but many great things have certainly been sacrificed for it. A wise write. Thank you. beer
