No Time for Love MAG
I wish that you would go away.
Can’t you see that I am so very busy?
I cannot fall in love today.
I have no time for the sweet nothings that you say.
Your musty cologne makes me dizzy.
I wish that you would go away.
No, I do not want you to stay.
And no, you may not kiss me.
I cannot fall in love today.
I dislike your daunting disarray.
Maybe tomorrow we will see.
But today you must go away.
And no, I do not want another bouquet
Your advances are a catastrophe.
I cannot fall in love today.
My schedule I cannot disobey.
But today I am finally free.
I asked: Why are you going away?
To which you reply, “I cannot fall in love today.”

This is great! And such sad irony. Maybe it'll work out next time. Keep on writing!

I liked this poem a lot because it tells you that you can't push someone away until you want them because when they want you, it may not be a good time for them.
