Keepin' It Alive
fire up that smoke
no matter all of the warnings
it settles you
makes you not eat so much
eh . . .
oh, my honey and I
share with each other
our bodily fluids
our tenderness
we share our affection
I mean . . .
what is this thing called love
if not share
and share alike
for contrary to popular belief
love is not a never-ending honeymoon
no . . .
you and that woman
must figure out
how to make it last 'til death do you part
through the rough times
hold on to part of how it used to be
I mean the thrill
will always be there
although it lurks within us
dormant, waiting
to be recognized from time to time
as the years wear on
our love comes alive again
with the beginnings of our smiles
rebirth, a cool thing
