I Don’t Write Love Poems Anymore

Once in a while I use to write love poems,
but not with any woman in mind.

I thought I wrote them because it seemed obligatory
to write some love poems as one who writes poetry.

But maybe as a song birds sings songs seeking a mate,
I was writing love poems for the same reason.

Now I don’t write love poems anymore, maybe
because I’m not seeking love anymore.
