Ode To Pamela

Ode to Pamela

Now that you have left me for reason,
I am a man of passed-out desires
And passed over dreams

I have unlearnt to find safe line
Between teasing and pleasing you.
I am yet to learn the difference
Between bare-breasts & fashionable breasts.

I have crossed to the other side
And I can’t ever go back.
I caressed your breasts all along the day,
Planted my affection on your lips
Surely it will stay there forever.

I never treated you a subordinate eve
You were only privileged to get pleasure
You never got the pain of childbirth from me
I t was I who ate the forbidden fruit of Eden.
Committing adultery in my old age.

Thanks, Sara. It is a topic and nothing to do with real life.

Sad write...Sounds as though written about one who has some regrets..I hope that it is a topic and not real life...If real life, I hope that things work out for you and you forgive yourself for your mistakes and go forward..Sara

Thank you for sharing your soul with us. Eating the forbidden fruit has put you into a situation. The thing is you think you crossed over but why can't you go back to the other side. If you really love this person and want her back-then yes you can change. Never think your hands are tied. God Bless Phyl
