Temporary Love
Temporary love
By: Patrick J. Whelan
What is happening in the world today?
The old fashioned relation has seen a decay.
The idea of loving one person for the rest of our lives,
Seems to have been replaced by, your good enough for right now, this point and time.
So few people seem to want to try and fix what’s broken, just throw it away,
End this now, so I can go out and play.
I believe in part it is due to lustful thinking,
Too many relationships started with sexual drinking.
Getting to know a person, and making connections,
Has fallen to the side, a hot lover seems to be the new direction.
Good sex is important, don’t get me wrong,
But even that gets boring, after too long.
To me making love, is much more attractive,
An act of passion, that is intellectually interactive.
The idea of the relationship, is not totally lost,
But to embrace the idea, losing instant gratification is the cost!
