Love, I’ve found,
Is what you might describe
As a two-way street.

Never forget this.

It’s one of those things that
Has to be given freely.
You can’t force someone
To feel the same way about you.

I mean, you can try,
By giving them nice things
(Usually shiny)
Or feeding them sweet foods
But if love is really there
It’ll show up, eventually.

Another good thing to remember
Is to minimize the time
You would normally be
A jerkface.

Finding someone to love
Is a marathon, and not a sprint
So if your goal is to get
Right into those tight pants,
Well, try to remove your dick
From your heart.

Look back at her,
Think carefully,
Dive right in.

And whatever you do,
Don’t look back.

Because sometimes
You only get
One shot.
