Mutated Desires

I can tell by the way you’re looking at me, you got mutated desires Everything is gonna change, once we crossover into the intimacy lane When we make our first intimate toll exchange, everything is gonna change ... Into mutated desires I’m not a virgin to the longings of a stowaway heart, wanting to take their hidden emotions to a different place Settle into a new personal space time zone Are you ready to take this maiden voyage, go on a journey to love? Board the good relationship Lollipop Are you ready to lick any problem together, give it all we got? Everything changing at a fast pace Mutated desires morphing ... wearing a chameleon face Kaleidoscope of colorful thoughts and moods spinning Some days we’ll be up, other days we’ll be down The wheel of varying expectations keep spinning ‘round and ‘round And the wheel keep spinning faster, it’s all a blur Tell me why today are you frowning, tell me why tomorrow are you grinning Some days will feel like we’re losing, other days feeling like we’re winning Are our two hearts prepared for the sudden change Will these desires turn from pleasure to pain: Bright blue skies glass of sunshine orange Now dark, black clouds cup of tears, taste of purple rain Will these desires change once more again — from chaste, abstinence pain to lustful gluttonous suffering You wanna know why do I ask such sensitive things Greeting my hello each morning, I wanna know, will there be a different person answering Mutating into more mutating ... do you fear the blob of uncertainty awaiting? Mutated desires ... I’m not a virgin to the yearnings of a lonely heart, but, are you sure that a platonic divorce is how you wanna start Mutated desires, everything changing ... changing so fast I must ask: will there be a change of address also? Mutated desires, everything changing ... changing so fast I must ask: will there be a surname change as well?

Yeow! Surely something some can address here. Lollipops, and humbugs Maybe looking for a sugar coated gumdrop, but found instead a sour & squishy jujube. "Mutated desires" for sure, I suppose.:) Best ever wishes, Mikki :)

This poem really expresses a lot from deep within. Along with so many questions. But you have done so well writing what people go through entering into relationships with anticipation of what will happen next, when will changes come and is there mutual strength to get through the ups and downs. Well done Freddie!! : )
