The Woman

For years, she was waiting to be noticed 
But this heart is so damn frigid 
For the past keeps messing with my future 
Like a cruel blade of torture 

How I wish I could quench her longing 
So those sultry lips could feel the bliss of rapture 
But this poor heart keeps hoping 
To, one day, tame the course of her nature

36 years married, and still can't make my wife get anywhere on time - If you're waiting to tame her, When it won't work, don't blame her! :-) Enjoyed

Thank you very much for the advice...I am new to this field... It's sad when you know that someone loves you but your mind is tied to the past...
