to squeeze the loneliness
from her arms
to pretend it far
far away
she took a lover

tender kisses
whet passions
long hung out to dry
the fever
of sensuous caresses
burned away
the anger
the degradation
at the hand that matched
the ring on her own

she took a lover
to her breasts
suckling forth a love
that lived never before
eroticelectricity charged
encircled
within loving arms
disappointments disappear
and for moments
for hours
it was easy to not
think
to let slide
what should be
and what shouldn’t

she took a lover…

lets see, *weighing it out in her mind*...hmmm an asprin...or a lover....hmmmm
both relieve pain....one is much more pleasurable than the other...but much more trouble too....hmmmm this might take some thought *g*

thanks you two for the read....and the compliments

Corozon - Wow!
Well - sometimes, in life these things
happen - better to be loved then to shrivel
up into bitterness.

Lovely Poem

Ah, don't we all long for those moments to never end.  Wonderful read.  Have enjoyed most everything of yours I've read and think I have read most.

C,
Very good. The weird thing about sex is it's both pleasurable and abusive, slowly making you a shell if there's nothing involved but the heat (and moisture) of it. Well, goodnight!

That would be one lucky fella, Corazon, and, then again, maybe not. To have you but not have you could be a very bittersweet experience.  The poem is loverly
