Catch and Release

Catching feelings like fireflies Can't tell if I'm in lust or love Or if I've just gotten so lonely So starved for attention That every gram of affection feels Like fluttering butterflies Correction: There is no love here Just sex and greed And a healthy dose Of an anxious teenager In over her head

Sex is just another sport; some just do it because everyone else does, some because they like it, some because it is a challenge, some just want to be the best that they can be at it, and many try to make more of it than it actually is! You can't enjoy sex as a ghost so enjoy it whilst you are alive - even when you can only write about it! Aloha! Rico
