Wowed by her beauty,
Feeling unworthy of her
He couldn’t believe
She asked him out.
He thought she’d think
He wasn’t good enough,
Handsome enough, or
rich enough to be
With her.
The first date, perfect.
Soon love blossomed.
But her three kids
Hated him because
He wasn’t their father.
Her ex husband was
Insufferable and a
Bad boy jerk to her.
Three months after
He fell in love with her
She said you’re too nice
And broke up with him
And took up with another
Bad boy jerk.

79, cancer survivor, work out 3 times a week, ride my exercise bike 2 hours daily. Began writing poetry October 2023, living in Greensboro, North Carolina, originally from just outside of Boston, MA.
Retired and enjoying a solo, reclusive life always researching and gaining knowledge. Most of my poems are fictional.
I write about many things: Spirituality, Mysticism, the Paranormal, Cryptids, Werewolves, Ghosts, 411s, Nature, Birds, Animals, Romantic Love, Death, NDEs, Women Persecuted as Witches, Fictional Characters I Create, News Stories, AI, Robots, Insects, like the poem entitled, Hail Caesar Bob, (about when bees were swarming me outside the door to my apartment), and many other topics. I write a minimum of 3 poems daily, sometimes more. I like and abide by the saying life's too short to be taken too seriously.
