Making Love

In a world obsessed with sex
when it ends in misery
like it often does
What can they expect.

Call me old fashioned
but don't  morals care and feelings matter any more 
or is it just one foot in the bedroom
and one foot out of the door.

For me
I need more.

I need love
to feel loved
to give love
to make love.

Making love doesn't have to start
or finish in a bedroom
but anywhere
soft caring words an embrace a stroke of her hair
showing . some one how much you care.

Being alone
Sometimes I yearn just to hold someone
feel the warmth of her body
and kiss 
that's something I really miss.

wrapped up in each others arms
by a  warm log fire
on a cold winters day.
Watching a movie together
and listening to what each others has to say.

Giving caring sharing
and maybe something more daring.

Someone you can implicitly trust 
faithful to quench your lust
a must.

Getting in bed is much sweeter
when you love your señorita
and just not for kicks.

Just as God planned
the love between a married woman
and married man.
