Will You Still Want Me

~ thereluctantpoet ~ 2 Comments

Come and enjoy this wondering piece and see what you think!

Dark Side of the Moon

You are loved with an everlasting love…
And so am I.

The waiting is vital,
We both get that—
But how long?
How long must we wait?

Will you still want me
When the sun has burned away the dew of our youth,
When care has plowed his furrows in our brows,
When my azure diamonds have lost their sparkle,
And the heat has cooled in your garnet jewels,
Will you still want me?

When our friendship has endured the years,
Will we decide that friendship is enough?
Or will we at last be ready to embark
Upon that mysterious journey
And plummet the depths of a love born in maturity,
Ready to accept with equal grace
Both pleasure and disappointment?
Only time will tell.

Come see what choices to make in “Tempt Me”.

Everyone Else Has the Best Titles

Penny is a great writer all around and was recently published!  Her blog is a lot of fun and I hope you’ll visit it at Penny Wilson Writes

Below you will find one of my favorite humorous pieces she’s done.

Tempt Me

You make my pulse race.

Your scent is a delight.

To have you just this once,

Is it a temptation I must fight?

I long for those feelings again,

When you satisfied my only need.

This voice in my head; a warning.

Must I really heed?

The lies will not block out the truth

Can I justify this one cheat?

I could have turned away

We would never have to meet.

No one would ever know,

It would be just between us.

Thank God there’s just one cupcake left

Or my pants would surely bust!
