lock and key

If he needed comfort, she was attracted;
The greater his problems, the more she reacted.
Knowing his neediness soon would beguile;
Feminine nurturing, as for a child.
Here was a chance she couldn’t resist;
To turn back the clock and finally fix;
Rejections of childhood that so badly marred her.
Lock and key mating; buried in ardor.
She is his safety; He is her goal;
Someone to blame while hes out of control!
She needs to fix him; make right his mistakes;
The more that she does, the less effort he makes.
Marriage will break this fragile affection;
Neither can trust for their own self protection!
He will go on to find a new mother;
She will seek out a needier other.
-------------------------------------------------
Continue to do what we do and regret;
That over and over, we get what we get.
In hormones we trust, except with a stranger;
(The more were compelled; the greater the danger!)
You may see cowards of those who escape;
(Leaving the lure with their mouths wide agape);
My heros are those who can flush with affection;
And promptly make haste in the other direction!

this is so powerfully true!
I felt this as a young man,
and I feel it now.
man oh man, I never did
feel, boy you could be something...
something is what we are,
no matter what we do or what
we pretend
I guess that/'/s why I still love
Tennessee Williams so much!
Great poem SW!
Peace! |

that last line hmm,
that is the reaction that attraction seems to shatter
we all know better
but that direction is unknown at that time.. |

Not anymore! 😉
You are the wizard of words. So seemlessly without effort you make it look easy.
Thank you for an enjoyable read.
