Someone always tried to sell her their heart.
But they all failed to declare the hefty hidden cost.
They painted each and every body part,
to look like a work of art.
But she detected the true nature,
even before she took them apart.
No, she was not ready, to settle for plain old a-la-carte.
This girl, even Napoleon Bonaparte,
couldn’t outsmart.
She knew some rare form of martial art.
Didn’t want to be just anybody’s sweetheart.
All she wanted was an electric spark,
that will jump-start,
her bleeding heart.
and light the way to what
she really wants.
