Not realizing the long-term, irreparable, damaging effects
We replace the emotional for the physical, thinking we like the feeling
Never considering how we will recover from this sexual healing
Being with someone sexually provides temporary release of pent frustrations
Laying in the wake of the disconnect knowing there is nothing, sheer devastation
Giving up parts of you that are so personal and private
In the aftermath you are ashamed of what you did and now you want to hide it
But in the heat of the moment you felt giving your all would get you somewhere
Except after the shower, your scent is washed away and you look in their eyes and see nothing there
You lose just a little more of your soul. And what of your pride and dignity?
A long time of humiliation for a sexual relationship with no promise of longevity
When did sex become better than love? Dare I say never?
But the ways to finesse a body and mind are really quite clever
Shrouded and clouded with the feelings that a tender touch can bring
Lack of love inside has you out here bad - pursuing and chasing
The high of love and what it will do for your heart
But love goes out the window the minute your legs part
Words whispered that touch deep inside that cover your eyes in a sexual veil
Body is in heaven and your mind, ha, oh well
You aren’t seeing clearly, the haze of intimacy obscures all rational thought
We realize that seldom do we follow the rules we ought
Take time to LOVE yourself before giving your loving to another
For it is better to have a temporary friend than a part time lover
