Separating What I Want from an Insatiable Need........

Can I Get It?????

If I want it …

Can I get it?

If I want it…

Will she let me?

But once I got it…

Do I still want it?

If she let’s me…?

What else can I get?

Will I keep it ?

Can I improve it?

Does she want it?

Just cuz she let’s me…

Now that I got it…

Why am I still sweating?

Gambling she can keep me…

I bet I can get it again?

On to the next getting…

Already forgotten that I can get it…

How could I, she gave it to me?

Is she happy that she gave it?

Or has she given up on getting back?

Retracing getting what was gotten…

Did I waste what I had?

Will she want to go back?

Before I got it, I did want it????

Now I got to fight for what is given….

I remember when I had that….

Now all I got is the question….

Why didn’t I keep it?

This one reeks of testosterone, just like the men's health club lockers. But it's all good. Nice to sense a familiar scent from time to time that hasn't been bought at some perfume counter. LOL Poets don't always have to channel the inner child, or the feminine side. Harv

You are absolutely right...there should be no limits to tasteful channeling (smile)..Thanks so much Harv for commenting!! lol

Poetry is what is lost in translation.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
