It Takes Two To Tango

I admit what I did was wrong And for six months I tried to hold out and be strong But your sister’s advances were persistent She just didn’t want to leave me alone She would grope me in the basement And kiss me in the corridor She’d feel me in the kitchen And whisper she can do me better as long as I didn’t tell a soul She would touch me in the basement just behind the storage wall Then she would stroke me in the boiler room and have herself a ball Your sister was promiscuous and didn’t care to stop All she wanted was to steel me from you so she climbed up on top In her mind she was older And tried to justify her lustful actions as being right And even though she too had a boy friend Her jealousy ran deep because it was me she wanted to keep Her imagination had convinced me too That you were sleeping between the sheets She planted this view in the back of my mind of John and you I didn’t know and couldn’t discern what was right She didn’t want a condom She made that very clear All she wanted was my seed So she rode me like a bull to breed From the stroking and petting To the hugging and tonguing She would bend over easy But wouldn’t swallow a drop A thought comes to mind Why do I post this on line Because this is only part of the story To simply hurt you the way you did me They say karma has a kick That is fine with me I have a temper with an onion to peel I hold back no more as the truth shall set me free From our actions to our deeds My desires as a writer run deep In Buddhism they say to reflect and let go and be saved or give your pain to Jesus and everything will be ok I have triggered a beast of suppressed anger by remembering I have danced through fire the door way of lust I sacrificed my heart and created a hole in my soul But I could not save a love that meant the most to me
