BOOKS VS MEN

~~♥~~

 

I used to think men

should be more like books

Both you cannot

judge by looks...

 

If I didn't want to finish reading

I put it down... no heart was bleeding

 

A book will never fuss or fight

It will stay with you

through the night...

 

It doesn't smoke. It doesn't drink.

It won't leave toothpaste

in the sink!

 

It doesn't binge... it don't eat...

It won't leave up the toilet seat!

 

It don't forget. It doesn't mope.

It won't hog the TV remote!

 

It doesn't have to have

The last say...

It doesn't have legs

 

to walk away.

 

But it's not soft. It isn't warm.

It doesn't keep you

safe from harm.

 

Even though it makes no fuss

It can't think. It can't discuss.

 

Even though it has its charms

it can't hold you in its arms.

 

It doesn't pine. It doesn't miss.

It can't hug and it can't kiss.

 

So now I think on it again...

... *I think BOOKS should be

             more like MEN!!!*
