Miss Ambitious

How can a woman
so sweet & pretty
carry me to heaven
only to drop me off
at Heartbreak City.

I wanted her kisses
because they were
so doggone delicious.
She kissed and moved on
because she was ambitious.

James,

It’s always good to be ambitious.

This poem seemed to have a tinge of sadness.

You capture the hurt of unrequited love and take us to a place we have all known. Well done.

A woman who is not ambitious seems a bit of a dud to me.

Been there, done that. But I would have never held her back.

These are some situations which we can’t control. Yann, said it right, sure are unpredictable.

I like the shape of the poem.

The content didn't hold me at all.
