There is no chance,
I won’t give in.
Can’t stand romance,
Cupid just won’t win.
__________________________________
I won’t fall in love,
It’s nothing I want to feel.
No arrows from above,
Will ever make it real.
__________________________________
Dodge it so it won’t grow,
Heart under lock and key.
No one will ever know,
And they’ll never ever see.
__________________________________
Put it in a wooden box,
Dig a hole in the yard.
Cover it with a large rock,
It isn’t all that hard.
__________________________________
Soon as it is covered,
You’ll be a lot happier.
So long as it isn’t discovered,
Things won’t be sappier.
__________________________________
No want for a gold ring,
It’s just easier to be single.
Romance isn’t my thing,
I just don’t want to mingle.

Having been widowed twice, I can relate to this! 😋 Lovely rhyming poem. 💜
Love is great when it works, but hurts when it doesn't, and your image reminds me of the work of Bouke De Vries, who has inspired a lot of my poetry. I might try another soon
