Melanie Agua - Still Single

It is not enough
that men gaze at me
with lust and proclaim
my worth which
I've already been told.

When he wishes me
to be his girlfriend
or pray that he'd find
the same, it flatters
but to no effect.

For none of those
who had the courage
to look had the will
to invite as if I'd bite,
as if I'd turn 'em down.
