Karma

by Jessica Wheeler

He said he was head over heels,
Right from the first moment we met.
But he couldn't quite seal the deal,
I constantly played hard to get.

I'd give him a glimmer of hope,
Then ditch at the drop of a hat.
Until, at the end of his rope,
He stopped, called it quits just like that.

It dawned on me right then and there,
That we were a match made in heaven.
I told him there’s love in the air,
He said he would be here by seven.

It seems I was right to assume,
That we were two birds of a feather.
For now that I'm over the moon,
He's suddenly under the weather.
