That Was Really Cold, Man

THAT’S REALLY COLD, MAN! There really is a woman who grants me utter peace And makes me believe that we will finally get relief It’s the same old story about youthful love crossing a sea But when my arms wrap round her and hers round me oh I ramble free First she hugs me slightly lightly for to reserve a gentle touch And then swears to God that she loves me and how very much This was no fantasy short lived nor overstated in any way And her thoughts were always inside my head before she had anything to say Devotion became lame yet ecstasy remained ecstasy She’d hover above a lover who made wonder come to be I’d hold her right and enfold her tight And then wouldst begin quite a night ‘twas quite a sight to see they say A festive of fervency and fidelity forsworn But it was a moral imperative that he slip away For that was the day an adulteress and his baby was born © 2011.…Phreepoetree
