love and lust lay 
intertwined.
within my hidden depths
lust alone does not 
complete
love alone is not 
replete.
for my need 
to be truly sated
love and lust
must be joyfully mated.

They need to reach an harmonious coexistence so lust will not adulterate love and love wouldn't obliterate lust! Deep writing dearest, Patricia!

I have thought about this a lot but only as i applies to me. It seems that lust is of greater importance today. At least that is my impression. Thank you for reading and your thoughts.
