Looking For Love (Just For A Night) Poem by Jacson Gelato

"Make love to me", she whispered
how could anyone think of devotion
she was just a one-night enforcer of proximity,
it would continue if she agreed
but it was a contract for just one night;
would she want love to ignite a fire
which would last forever
when both were strangers
meeting in a lonely pub,
wanting to share togetherness
just for one night until daylight?
when she woke up in the morning,
he was gone
she had no regrets;
again that night she went to the pub
another one came along
she whispered - "make love to me";
this time it was for real
but it lasted until she was bored;
she went out, found another,
more passionate than others
she wanted it to last,
this time he asked her to go
he told her he was looking for love
just for the night, not forever.
