White elephant

From my point of view 

He is like 

A beautifully wrapped present 

Brightly colored and fun looking 

With a giant, tightly-knotted bow on top

Making it hard to open 

It is making the rounds 

And I want it

It is in the possession of someone else 

And it’s making me a little jealous 

I am curious what is inside 

And I assume it’s something wonderful 

But unfortunately I cannot have it

I have to find a way to make it mine 

With a little luck and finesse 

I could take possession of it

Or while no one is looking 

I could snatch it and open it myself 

Pirate the loot inside 

And leave only the mess behind 

Why does my dream man seem so much 

Like a game of white elephant
