Passion

I remember times our passion flowed stronger than wine

After the dance standing close in the kitchen I felt this slow blooming need to pull you close

The moment we touched it was ignition

Clothes dropped to the floor,

Kisses with complete submission

Time stopped but not us

We struggled like children full of glee to make to it to the bed and protect our knees

We couldn’t get enough and you completed my surging intention

You gave away everything like Halloween candy

You met me without condition, save a gentle reminder our contract was for ten with options to renew, and we made thirty four

Your disease forced me to care for you like a child as you became docile; I supported your needs without giving into passion

And when after years of loss and much confusion you drifted away I only regret the time we lost to explore each other more

Relief from the meanness of your ugly condition came but I will never forget our joyful passion.
