Making Love Ii & Iii

II

Sex
light touch
just enough
for the moment
to bring about life
or add to a pleasure
that might become addicting
if respect and love are not held
to meet a spiritual connection
and rise above animal selection.

                                                    III

More 
is not enough to
hold a person.
Keeping a hostage
to love-makings' ego
only results in lost lust.
True lasting togetherness is
more about comfort and cuddling
than sex playing a foreverness lie.
