were&lt;br /&gt;never could be&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;you were a mere illusion&lt;br /&gt;a dream&lt;br /&gt;purporting to be so big&lt;br /&gt;so voluminous&lt;br /&gt;so perfect&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br

get the urge&lt;br /&gt;I soon realize why....because afterwards all sensation is heightened&lt;br /&gt;Even wearing my underwear and jeans can cause arousal&lt;br /&gt;which brings all my thoughts to you&lt;br /&gt;and my increasing libido&lt;br /&gt;all this business between my legs&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I always think I can control it&lt;br /&gt;and for the most part I do&lt;br /&gt;but I realize I lack some discipline&lt;br /&gt;or maybe I do what I do for justified reasons?&lt;br /&gt;Don't we all have reasons for choosing to do all we do?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today the holiest of days...I find myself lying on my sofa&lt;br /&gt;covered with an afghan.....thinking anything but holy thoughts...&lt;br /&gt;I pretend the back sofa cushions are you&lt;br /&gt;and then I become fully aware of my clit&lt;br /&gt;pulsating and tingling&lt;br /&gt;and my fingers naturally find their way down inside my pajama bottoms&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't wear underwear with my pajamas&lt;br /&gt;my mom always said your body needs to "breathe" at nighttime&lt;br /&gt;so this makes access to anything and everything so much easier&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So here I am on Sunday morning....my only child in his bedroom playing&lt;br /&gt;and my thoughts are only on getting off&lt;br /&gt;and wishing it were your fingers&lt;br /&gt;or lips&lt;br /&gt;or tongue&lt;br /&gt;or dick&lt;br /&gt;doing all the motions instead of my own fingers&lt;br /&gt;or hand&lt;br /&gt;or arm&lt;br /&gt;or right now whatever I can cram between my legs&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My body becomes almost like an animal&lt;br /&gt;and yet part of my human conscience remains and I feel slight guilt&lt;br /&gt;mainly for not being able to control myself any better than I am&lt;br /&gt;or for finally giving in to all my pent up needs and frustrations&lt;br /&gt;my fingers suddenly seem to have developed brains of their own....and I swear it is only seconds before I come&lt;br /&gt;the first time&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I pick up a book to read&lt;br /&gt;but soon I feel my clit tingling and pulsating all over again&lt;br /&gt;I am thankful it can't speak any words&lt;br /&gt;or it would surely be screaming at me!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My fingers and hand press against it to silence it&lt;br /&gt;They want to smother the voices I hear in my head&lt;br /&gt;all via my clit&lt;br /&gt;who does this I ask myself?&lt;br /&gt;surely this is not normal&lt;br /&gt;I squeeze my legs together harder and harder around my hand and thumb&lt;br /&gt;which are pressing against my pussy and clit&lt;br /&gt;and it's like I am on some bucking bronco&lt;br /&gt;hanging on dear life only by my fingers pressed on my clit&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my clit is like the horn to my saddle&lt;br /&gt;and I am hanging on for the ride of my life&lt;br /&gt;not just once&lt;br /&gt;but again and again and again&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I suddenly realize I have lost all control&lt;br /&gt;I am on a fuck fest&lt;br /&gt;a masturbation marathon&lt;br /&gt;all the while having to be as quiet as I can&lt;br /&gt;so my son in his bedroom will never suspect a thing&lt;br /&gt;or come out to investigate&lt;br /&gt;or hear anything&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder if I can hurt myself doing this so much&lt;br /&gt;what would I say to a doctor if I had to get treated for some weird masturbation injury?&lt;br /&gt;I feel all the muscles in my arms and chest burning&lt;br /&gt;I am hot and sweaty&lt;br /&gt;My clothes are sticking to my skin&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I want a shower&lt;br /&gt;but I don't stop&lt;br /&gt;I imagine it is you getting me off&lt;br /&gt;you whispering in my ear to be quiet&lt;br /&gt;to not make a sound&lt;br /&gt;yet taking me time and time again&lt;br /&gt;right over the edge&lt;br /&gt;each time my orgasms getting stronger and stronger&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My living room smells like sex&lt;br /&gt;how is this possible when there is only me in the room?&lt;br /&gt;I see something fly by the back window in my kitchen&lt;br /&gt;I look at the clock and realize HOURS have passed&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is now 2:00 p.m.&lt;br /&gt;I miss you&lt;br /&gt;I realize just how bad I need you&lt;br /&gt;desire you&lt;br /&gt;want you&lt;br /&gt;crave you&lt;br /&gt;all even on a Sunday&lt;br /&gt;the holiest day of the week&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I realize I must stop&lt;br /&gt;I need to get to the shower&lt;br /&gt;and I can barely stand&lt;br /&gt;in fact when I move to get up from the sofa&lt;br /&gt;I almost fall down&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am weak&lt;br /&gt;my legs nearly give out from under me&lt;br /&gt;I am so dizzy&lt;br /&gt;sweaty&lt;br /&gt;I feel like all my blood has been drained from my body&lt;br /&gt;I cannot move my hands&lt;br /&gt;my eyes are not able to see things correctly&lt;br /&gt;I can't even type my password to get online&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder what you would think of me if you knew all this&lt;br /&gt;would you still want to be with me?&lt;br /&gt;would you still love me?&lt;br /&gt;would you think me some sort of weird insatiable nymphomaniac?&lt;br /&gt;I don't even know what to think of myself&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just want to fill myself up....&lt;br /&gt;with you...with these feelings&lt;br /&gt;it's no wonder society is overweight&lt;br /&gt;choosing food to try to fill that void instead&lt;br /&gt;all walking around with bulbous bellies&lt;br /&gt;that are completely empty inside&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it's just like when you cheat on a diet...&lt;br /&gt;or eat a ton of chocolate when you know you will suffer the consequences later...&lt;br /&gt;but you do it anyway......and then sort of regret it.....when you don't feel so good afterwards&lt;br /&gt;not that it stops you from shoving it in your mouth&lt;br /&gt;well sometimes it does&lt;br /&gt;if you stop and think about the consequences before putting that first piece of chocolate into your mouth. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Later I just feel more empty and lonely than ever....&lt;br /&gt;realizing all the things I do to myself&lt;br /&gt;all the food I shove down my throat&lt;br /&gt;none of those things are substitutes for the real thing&lt;br /&gt;you&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I apparently have a secret side to me.&lt;br /&gt;I think most of us do don't we?&lt;br /&gt;A side we keep tucked away from everyone's eyes&lt;br /&gt;all eyes except God's eyes&lt;br /&gt;they are everywhere&lt;br /&gt;and yet I still chose to do it&lt;br /&gt;not just once&lt;br /&gt;but many times&lt;br /&gt;each time asking for His forgiveness&lt;br /&gt;yet knowing I could not promise I would never do it again&lt;br /&gt;today at least&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All on a

&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And swallow&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Even before the prior bite hits my stomach&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I continue to try to fill up this empty space&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I know it's not food that creates my hunger&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Yet in your absence I reach for food&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And cram in another mouthful &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;On top of the first and second and third&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Until I am gagging with the overflow&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;My stomach swells and bloats&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I feel miserable&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I remain insatiable&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;My thoughts already on mac and cheese for lunch&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Before I finish my eggs and bacon.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The cycle turns over and over&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Like a spinning top gone out of control&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Consuming everything it touches&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I wait for the one who can make me hum&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And fill me up with invisible dinners of love&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;So my stomach can be empty&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Yet completely full and satisfied. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I guess that's why it never works&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Cramming bite after bite inside my mouth&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Because it's not really my stomach I need to fill&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;It is a spot much deeper &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Hidden from all eyes but yours&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And no matter what I do&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;There will never be anything&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;That can take the place of your taste&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Your tongue, your voice, your touch&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;It's not food I need to shove in my mouth&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And halfway down my throat&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;It's your tongue....&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I need to feel your lips upon my lips...&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And your sweet cock&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Pursed between my lips&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;My tongue devouring the softness of its head&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;As the shaft becomes ridged with need&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I want to feel your pulse beating in your penis&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Against my mouth&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I want to climb on top of you and bury your face &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Between my breasts&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I want to feel you bite my nipples and suck them hard&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I want to feel you grab my ass and push yourself inside me&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;perpetually wet with want....&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;your cock thrusting in and out of my body&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Fingers and tongue flicking my clit in between&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Over and over and over again&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Your balls slapping against my skin&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Damn &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Now that is what I need&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;You are what I want&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And even though you satisfy&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Filling me to overflowing&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Like a hungry homeless beggar &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;My voice will still whisper&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p

know it must be you....&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;It has to be you.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;My heart starts pounding in my chest&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;I feel butterfly wings flapping in my stomach&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;My lips cannot suppress a grin&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;You walk a few steps in front of me...&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;As I watch your snug fitting thermal underwear shirt&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;glide across the muscles of your arms and back&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;I glance down at your jeans...&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;notice your flat stomach.....&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;I watch you walk...your body move&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;everything seems so perfect.....&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;the way you carry yourself&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;your strides and fluid-like movements of your

the other end&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;there you are again. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;My breath catches.....I know you can see me....feel me&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Because I can feel you&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;I can feel the pull....the force....that electric current&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;running between us......&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;I think everyone must see it&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;feel it&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;taste it&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;And then you turn around&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;and my heart sinks&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;as I realize it is not yet your face&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;but the face of a stranger my eyes gaze upon&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Yet on this day........you became real to me. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;More than a possibility.....flesh and bones created&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;standing before me, moving in front of me&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Our time together is close now....&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;So close I can feel your hot breath on the

rest...&lt;br /&gt;I savor the stillness and unplug my brain.&lt;br /&gt;I shut down and turn off.&lt;br /&gt;I go into screensaver mode...&lt;br /&gt;and allow my thoughts and dreams and wishes and

will file it away one day but then never find the time? &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;The same for items we have accumulated over time that we probably will never use again&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;We tuck those once-believed treasures down into boxes &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Saying we will go through them on a rainy day&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Sort and sift....maybe have a garage sale&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Or get a filing system and really organize our crap&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"

class="MsoNormal"&gt;Trying to suffocate us&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Like weighted monkeys on our backs they nag and nag&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color:

ignore it.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Saving it for tomorrow. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;But tomorrows never

were always screaming we never seemed to have?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Realizing perhaps we don't have as much to do with our time as we once believed we would?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;What lies behind your closed doors?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Not only in

&lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Don't you sometimes wish you had a giant sweeper you could

suck out all the dust and cobwebs from all those nooks and crannies?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;All the junk you have fast-fed your brain over time&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Performing elite lipo-suctioning of your brain?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"

&lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;You realized halfway through &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;It would have been so much easier to have kept up with the pace all along&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Instead of trying to play catch up many years later&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;The perpetual piles continue to build &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;And you start to wonder if you will ever gain control again&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Or if the piles will become giant soul-seeking blobs&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Consuming all your time&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;All your energy&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"

reached down and touched each formed letter&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;As if by osmosis my fingers could become entwined with yours&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;As I turned the envelope over, I thought about the seal&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Did you lick it before pressing it shut?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;To imagine I was holding in my grasp&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Any object your hands let alone your tongue had touched &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Was almost too much for me to fathom&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I grew quite heady just thinking about it all&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I pressed the seal to my nose and deeply breathed in&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Hoping I could smell the scent of the gum you chew&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I gently broke the seal&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Carefully&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;So as not to damage the remnants of leftover glue still present&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I brought it to my own tongue &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;And I licked it&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Slowly&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255,

class="MsoNormal"&gt;Sometimes so overwhelming a task, I choose to not even bother&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Instead I allow the merry-go-round &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;To

mastered&lt;br /&gt;Trying to draw attention for even a moment&lt;br /&gt;In my direction&lt;br /&gt;Yet even when I succeed.....I have to ask myself&lt;br /&gt;"Is it genuine?"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

one can trust me&lt;br /&gt;Yet feel perhaps I cannot trust them?&lt;br /&gt;Why do little white lies seem only "stretching the truth" in their minds&lt;br /&gt;Because they have convinced themselves to believe it is still "truth?"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;      &lt;p  style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 102, 204);font-family:comic sans ms;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;We all know they are the first to boast they are not a liar&lt;br /&gt;They have nothing to hide&lt;br /&gt;They are not doing anything even remotely

style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That seems to be a bit hypocritical to me&lt;br /&gt;And yet the blindfolds come out&lt;br /&gt;The game continues&lt;br /&gt;Even if we grow weary of playing&lt;br /&gt;We choose to see only what we choose to see&lt;br /&gt;Ignoring all other bites of reality&lt;br /&gt;Hovering in our peripheral vision. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;            &lt;p  style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 102, 204);font-family:comic sans ms;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most do a pretty good job&lt;br /&gt;At convincing another they are completely trustworthy&lt;br /&gt;Yet in reality they fall short&lt;br /&gt;Along the way they change the rules&lt;br /&gt;To benefit only them&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;      &lt;p  style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 102, 204);font-family:comic sans ms;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What was once shared is taken away and becomes hidden&lt;br /&gt;Tucked down inside a pocket that fits only their hands&lt;br /&gt;Done perhaps they espouse "to protect" another.....&lt;br /&gt;Because everyone knows what the other does not know won't hurt them right?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 102, 204);font-family:comic sans ms;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Or maybe it is done to "avoid" stirring up conflicts&lt;br /&gt;Not realizing they are simmering a potful&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p  style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 102,

/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I started at such a very young age&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;When collecting things to me, seemed all the rage&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;After all other family members hung their wares on the wall&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Proudly displaying what they collected to all&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I soon became known as the girl with it all&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;My purse resembling a boutique in a mall&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I was the walking reality of Let's Make A Deal&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;You could ask me "Do you have this?" and I could answer "YES" with a squeal!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;When I spied a collectible I just had to own&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I'd buy a pair if I could - - one to store, one to hone&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Never being without was the goal in my mind&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;If I had two of everything, I would always be fine&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;For if one became broken or lost in the mix&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I could whip out the spare and soon I could fix&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Any missing link in any collection I had&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Not being able to do so would make me so sad&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold;

/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Because gift ideas are things of the past&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;To give me something I want you've got to move fast&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I have the tendency to go ahead and get what I want&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;When I see it, I buy it, though never do I flaunt&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I take my prize home and put it away&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;To get out again on a rainy, glum day&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Just to gaze upon it can fill me with joy&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Triggering memories I never want to destroy&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Of days gone past and happier times&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;When people weren't committing so many crimes&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;When days were carefree and summer seemed endless&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;And most around me were all very clueless&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;To the possible dangers lurking nearby&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;In our world at that time it was rare to find a bad guy&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;We'd go to bed at night with our doors unlocked&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;And dad didn't have to sleep with his gun half-cocked&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I could fall asleep dreaming of Batman and Robin&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Superheroes, comics, and cartoon heaven&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;A make believe world where we wanted to play&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;For hours on end on any given day&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Imagining what it'd be like stepping into their world&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Or having them step into ours, or better yet being hurled&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;To stand right beside us and live out a scene&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;From a movie, cartoon, or favorite magazine&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;While new collectibles have surfaced over the years&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I find myself still drawn to the ones free of tears&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Bringing smiles to my face every time they are present&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Feeling such joy removes thoughts of the money I've spent. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Now my collectible ways have crossed the line&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I have to stock up and my closets are a shrine&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;To rows of paper towels and toilet tissue&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Soaps, razors, and bottles of shampoo&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Heaven forbid I should run out in the middle of the night&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;What would I do?... it would be such a plight&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Though I have tried to curtail it a bit with success&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I have more than enough to eliminate stress&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;So it is what it is and without a doubt&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I certainly am not suffering a collectible drought&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;While adding a wing to store my "stuff" is not feasible&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I think renting a storage locker is certainly achievable.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;This little ditty has turned into a small novelette&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I apologize now for I'm certain to get&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Comments from bunches who had no time to read&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;This in its entirety, without first smoking some weed.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br

/&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;As I grabbed the shaving cream&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;While in the shower today&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;My mind took off as usual&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;With thoughts of how to play&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;My cream-filled hands began to wander&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;So slowly they moved around&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Applying thick, delicious cream&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;To my body without a sound&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I thought of you as it covered me&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;In deep, delicious bliss&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I only wish you were there&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;So eager I was to kiss&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;You anywhere on your body&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Your face, your lips, your dick&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I could think of many places&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I certainly wanted to lick&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;The feeling sent me reeling&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;As the cream dripped down my thighs&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I imagined you beside me&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Your cock just starting to rise&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Between my cream filled fingers&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;So squishy, soft and wet&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;The main goal in my mind&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;To make you the happiest yet&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I wondered how it would feel&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Smearing this between each other&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Baby all I've got to say &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Is you better run for cover&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br

rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Splashing on me and around me&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Drenching me in their sweetness, their fluidity&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I drowned many times over in your words&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Such a strange sensation to be drowning yet elated&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Floating, carelessly, supported by your words&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;With never any doubt in my mind of your feelings&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Your intentions,

babbling brook&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Still able to kiss my skin with sweetness&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Showering me with your love&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;But no longer deafening, sometimes eerily quiet&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Depending on the influx from your environment&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Sometimes totally silent&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style:

of change&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I realize I have grown very thirsty&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Once satiated, I now silently cry on the sidelines for a drink&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;

class="MsoNormal"&gt;Or see my parched lips and tongue&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Begging for acknowledgment&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;From the one holding the pitcher to my cup&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I remain poised, ready, with lips parted and hands outstretched&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 204, 204);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Waiting ... wondering if today your rains will return.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-style:

smooth out all the creases in your brow&lt;br /&gt;And fill in all those gaps in your heart that others have left behind&lt;br /&gt;The holes that have been carelessly placed over time&lt;br /&gt;And those whose precision was engineered from the onset&lt;br /&gt;So even though your heart be pierced&lt;br /&gt;It could come to know and recognize true joy&lt;br /&gt;Happiness and love&lt;br /&gt;So powerful, so fulfilling,&lt;br /&gt;It would be as if it were rebirthed&lt;br /&gt;To start anew, fresh, unscathed&lt;br /&gt;Only ready to receive&lt;br /&gt;Beating to receive&lt;br /&gt;Yearning to receive&lt;/p&gt;                                &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If I could,&lt;br /&gt;I would take my hands and ease the load you carry on your back&lt;br /&gt;As well as in your mind&lt;br /&gt;I would remove the worries you fight against each day&lt;br /&gt;And replace them with certainty&lt;br /&gt;I would remove the doubts and fears replaying in your mind&lt;br /&gt;And replace them with security and truth&lt;br /&gt;So even though there be furrows in your thoughts&lt;br /&gt;I could flood them with goodness and love&lt;br /&gt;Till their banks were overflowing&lt;br /&gt;You would become saturated like a sponge&lt;br /&gt;Filled with love&lt;br /&gt;Renewed by love&lt;br /&gt;Empowered by love&lt;br /&gt;Embraced by love&lt;/p&gt;                          &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If I could,&lt;br /&gt;I would help you to open your eyes, to see what is already standing before you&lt;br /&gt;Waiting patiently, ready&lt;br /&gt;Wanting only to give you the best,&lt;br /&gt;Everything you have ever desired&lt;br /&gt;I would remove the anxieties&lt;br /&gt;And replace them with loyalty and trust&lt;br /&gt;So you would never have to wonder&lt;br /&gt;Who I belonged to&lt;br /&gt;Who I was made for&lt;br /&gt;Who I am being given to&lt;br /&gt;Who I desire&lt;/p&gt;                            &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If I could,&lt;br /&gt;I would open your ears, so you could hear these words&lt;br /&gt;Spoken softly yet deliberately&lt;br /&gt;With much intention and purpose&lt;br /&gt;So your soul would become filled with passion and life&lt;br /&gt;Each fiber tingling with excitement&lt;br /&gt;Of what the future holds&lt;br /&gt;Once we are together&lt;br /&gt;And just when I believe my heart and soul&lt;br /&gt;Could not possibly be filled with more love for you&lt;br /&gt;They are showered upon yet again&lt;br /&gt;Thus they remain perpetually drenched&lt;br /&gt;Overflowing, waiting, to rain upon yours.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Copyright
