Affecting the proverbial Christmas stocking,

Brought me the deepest
Most affecting and lingering pain
Have all died away
As their own pain is buried 
So does mine fade.

That must make me
Their survivor.

There's only one thing better than sex, that's more sex
Do I hear you guys chiming in with a big fat “yes”
Sitting here typing and out I'm freaking
It's even affecting my educated speaking
Causing me emotional panic and serious distress
