[hometext] => just another poem
[bodytext] => two young lovers lie, their bodies on fire, with untamed passion and burning desire. she whispers, "my first. please, take it slow", to the boy holding onto the girl letting go. two years later they stood, hand-in-hand at the altar to tell all the world their love would not falter. her vows given him, his to her evermore . . . the man holding onto the woman letting go. seventeen years would pass before they would part. one left in the ashes grievous pain in his heart. "what must I do, your love to regain, I don't know", said the man holding onto the woman letting go. years later another stood at the altar to wed, and thoughts of the past rushed 'round his head. for twenty-plus years he'd watched this child grow . . . now, again was a boy holding onto a girl letting go. forty years on in a room made for one he held her hand as in the past he had done. last minute memories of the words 'take it slow', died the old man holding onto the woman letting go.
