Nice but No Spice

Another time, past tense

Things might have been different

He was articulate, caring, astute

Deeply empathetic

I suppose he was honorable

Authentic and genuine

Highly educated but not elitist

Compassionate and kind

Financially secure

Romantic and ardent

Complimentary

Yes, another time, past tense

Things might have been different

Their lives might have intertwined

In the perfect mesh of destiny

With a chaser of love

she researched it completely

From below and above

He seemed so perfect on Match.com

But there was no zing, no pop

no electrical jolt when they met the first time

She just wanted to bolt

She endured a few meetups just to be nice

But sorry, so sorry

It was lacking in spice
