Desperate For Love

I sat beside love and felt her hand; Her passion put a barricade on my mouth. I just couldn't come to tell her; She became too demanding. Love's silk smooth skin; Her perfect imperfections. Her cooking is phenomenal; Before stale as stone. Makes me wonder if she knows... I found another Love. Love, tugging back and forth; Which do I choose... My Mother always told me, From her past experiences... Love is like oil... It can be destroyed in seconds, But can take a lifetime to recover
