Good Time Gal Poem by Carolyn Brunelle

She pushed him away
till he could no longer stay;
he hit the road and to this day
he's never been back around this way.

Love couldn't hold her
to a promise or a ring;
all she's ever wanted
is a good time and no strings.

She still dances
in the bars and dives
not even looking
for love to arrive.

She'll break more hearts
on lots of other days;
can't face life
so she chooses to play
and meet her demise
in destructive ways.
