Type of Woman

Alexis Garcia

First date jitters
A bouquet of the finest roses
Glasses of wine that will
Remove your instinctual need to remain cautious.
You don’t strike me as the type of woman
Who daydreams about

Classic romantic gestures and
Wonders if someone will eventually
Find her to be worth all of that trouble.
Second date expectations
Conversations that attempt to

Puncture the surface
Superficial tendencies temporarily

Fade away as the possibility
Of a third date seems more likely
You don’t strike me as the type of woman
Who devotes all of their attention
To that one person
And worries about something going wrong
The peaks and valleys of dating
Do not interest you
Finding someone to help you feel grounded
Is neither a desire nor a goal of yours
And that is just something I will have to get used to.
