Poem Artwork

 


It's a tantalizing truism
that love resides within
it permeates both heart and soul
while shivering the skin
it isn't something you can catch
but sometimes it seems so
seared by Creator in our psyche
to spread where e'er we go
whenever  someone attracts us
if instincts veer to love
we should honestly separate
whether it's love or lust
hoping that in our instincts
we can learn to trust
for we don't want to be unkind
to make another sad
thinking we both are of one mind
to find one just was had
if all you want is sexual fun
make sure it's mutual
it is so  cruel to hit and run
soon as the act is done


love will kiss sunset with our eyes
embracing moons moment
still entwined when glorious sunrise
blesses our contentment

mature adults should always discuss the ground rules before responding to lust, if it leads to love, all the better ...

I think the word "love" is so missused -- so abused; good point you make, here. ~~Carmen :-)

Any act not carried out outside the premises of love shall end up in trouble. It will reach nowhere. It is the work of the devil. Great poem. GBQ

Passion remembers and lust forgets. I'll take passion and rememeber it forever and play it back again and again. A one nighter is a passing, spontaneous physical act that is fulfilling but lacking. It's a small part of what passion brings forever.
Great thought provoker ,Sis.
Love,
Susan

I always remember the lessons we received, love is not because.... but in spite of. Lust is blind to anything good or bad because it is just self egoism which in the end never satisfies. Victor

Society reeks of lust nowadays. Just look at the sitcoms that are on the air, they all pander to lust and the hit and run sex you mentioned. How can our children grow when they are inundated with this type of trash. Great write Eileen.

Love and lust - two totally different forces - one has strong roots, and the other skims on the surface like a rock over water. Touching and moving, touching and moving, and leaving behind for a moment the fact that it was there.

You express strength of conviction here Eileen, and do so with the fortitude of one who knows from experience.

You know its love, when you still love them, warts and all...;)
You express a salient truth eloquently

Bravo
