Moderately Confused
I want it all, with nothing lacking.
I want it today. Just like fracking
Bring it on. Give me more.
Before I head on out the door.
Love is a four letter word.
You’ll give it all, I’ve heard.
Give me exactly what I need.
No, don’t give me a joint of weed.
I want the real thing.
No, not Coke. I want a fling.
Quit trying to dodge the request.
Let’s put this whole thing to rest.
Do you love me or do you not?
I have pinned you on the spot.
Give the answer and tell the truth.
This is not an election booth.
I have chased you long and hard.
I ran half way across the yard.
It’s time to make some front page news.
It is not time to pick and choose.
Do not say I am too demanding.
What we need is some understanding.
Two people meet. They fall in love.
They are like two turtle doves.
They love each other in every way.
It is not a dirty thing to say.
I’m not weird, I am horny
I know you simply adore me.
Why hold back. The time is now.
Don’t look at me with that scowl.
Lovers are as lovers do.
What do you mean I’m such a fool?
I don’t only talk about sex.
Like it is some kind of hex.
I just want to show you that I care.
Put a flower in your hair.
You’re not falling for any of this.
Can’t I even have a kiss?
What the hell? As she slammed the door.
All I wanted was a little more.
