It’s becoming clear
Old fashioned romance is dead
I want an LTR
But they want to hook-up instead.
I want long term dating
Not short-term flings,
I want tight and secure
Not something no-strings.
At my age I never considered
Meeting someone for a hook-up
This is a crazy situation
I just couldn’t cook up.
This casual dating I find
Is just making me frantic,
Somehow it doesn’t jive
With an old-school romantic.
For a writer
It’s like committing libel
To a true believer
Like speed-reading the Bible.
Now I sit here wondering
Should I accept the latest fashion,
And let them satisfy
Their hot-blooded passion?
