Loveless Love Poem for NaPoWriMo Day 4



Today's poetry was inspired by the prompt on the NaNoWriMo site "write a love poem without using the word love (and avoid cliches.)

A man is supposed to buy shiny things and carry a big wallet
Slay dragons one moment, and bring flowers the next
A woman is supposed to look like a model, always flawless
When she wakes up and when she lays down to rest.

Forget about magazines, movies and books
Reality works in different ways
After all, we all know about fading looks
and remember that money never stays.

Laugh
0vercome challenges
Validate your feelings
Embrace each others flaws.
