Before We Knew the One We Know

Before we knew the one we know…. By: Steve Hudson Once we were attracted to each other Before we even knew each other, Passion flowed through our bodies Ready to ignite at the faintest glow, Now we know each other Time and circumstance has lulled our affections Passion is reduced to a re-action that is never an action The gravity of our reality takes form on aged bodies The glow that once lightened up the fires in our room Now frightens the idea of romance between the frigid bride and groom Wouldn’t lovemaking be breathtaking if only we could see? The one we knew, before we know, making that our reality.
