Good Loving and Sex
good loving seals a broken heart
ease a crush spirit, when
love is gone and sex is stale
trying to hold on to what you had
is in vain, the fire is out
red sparks no longer shimmer
ashes grayish, some darkish
cover the chimney heart
love and passion once burned
dark lonely existence
behind sad eyes remembering
face glowing from love, lost
divorce a dirty word
travels through the air sometimes
slashes through hopes that this'll change
sex for the sake of doing it
stale when heart, soul, and mind
is somewhere else
searching in and out for
any signs of intimacy
good loving and sex
lies felt, emotion ripped apart
desiring anywhere, but here
hurting inside dulled the sense

Hi Barb
A very good subject but I think you might want to read this aloud and do a bit of tinkering. Won't take much I don't think.................stan
