Butterfly Kisses

You told me I belong to you That you know I love you true But darling I’m not a succulent plant What’s a chocolate woman to do Love is enough you said That’s pretty in song and poem But when you leave my bed Why do I feel amber alone Loving you is like static shock As long as we have connection I need more than my body to rock Even deeper than spiritual oppression Is this bond we have despite fact I left you emotionally when indeed You ignored little things that Mean so much to me Maybe our season is done And the reason is life is short and crazy Would love you in moon in sun Butterfly kisses and hot love making But again it’s not enough And I have two new men admirers Neither may have your touch But I will find out what time desires

Karen, what a quandary! In particular, I enjoyed "What's a chocolate woman to do?" Time and perseverance will ultimately yield a result, as you correctly assert.

Try those other guys. They say you have to kiss a lot of frogs to find your prince. This is an enjoyable read!

Time will solve the dilemma Tom. The one I have been with 3 years before these two new ones thinks he will just be patient. Lol but that will get old! I’m starting to value my independence more lol.
