Unhealthy Fantasies

He will not love He will not honor her He will not yield to her needs He will not give her what she wants So she thinks of someone who can She will not submit She will not bow to him She will not yield to his needs She will not give him what he wants So he thinks of someone who can Further and further they drift apart With craving souls and burning lusts Temptations mounting everywhere And they succumb to the ones in mind In darkened rooms raging passions Take hold of their private places Til ideal faces and ideal bodies Release the tension temporarily She's taken to worlds She flies in the heavens She's the moon that bursts into stars She comes down but sees her winding sheets And that she has crashed there all alone He's riding the waves He's walking on the waters He's Poseidon on seas with mermaids Then letting go, falling back to depths below He still burns alone for satisfaction Because though they can think of someone who can They can't... fulfill needs and desires with just sex They need and want each other's appeal They need to love and submit They need to honor and bow They need to yield... Til their wishes become reality
