 Sex Now

 

Speaking for only myself

sex now different

as

Me nearing eighty-seven

she nearing seventy-seven

Sex mow thought of

in different terms

Sex thought of now

more so as an act of love

than that of passion

Speaking for only myself

sex now thought in

terms of closely held

personal quiet intimacy

Sex now rarely concluded

as those long gone younger days

In honesty

more often than not,

concluded now

without physical gratification

However

speaking for only myself

these loving times of…

These loving times of

personal quiet intimacy

of nude body to body

chest to breast

mouth to mouth interludes

with barely heard

whispered words of love

Though most probably

concluded without sexual gratification

speaking for only myself

Sex now

Love now

As sweet as those younger days

What I gathered was that you are speaking for a whole generation of octogenarians who have slowed down their sex drive to focus more on love of their significant other. There is something beautiful about a couple that lives long together and when it is their time, died together within days. Gets to a point where one cannot live without the other.

Speaking only for myself
I now know what to expect when
I get to be your age--if I can remember!

Closeness, and loving intimacy as we age...
Can be just as beautiful in its own
way as the acrobatic passions of youth...
How wonderful you still share this with
a lady who obviously loves this as much
as you do...
