She Loved a Man

The first was youth,
playful and full of dreams.

The second was pure lust,
legs of hers did tremble like never before, or since.

The third was genuine friendship,
never was there a judgement.

The fourth was a teacher,
she saw what is was like to be human outside of America.

The fifth was truly beautiful,
though a face like gold, he touched her heart with pure, sweet rose petals.

The sixth the future yet holds,
He though will have a time of it.
