ONWARD AND UPWARD

Picking up pieces
Like social diseases
The birds and bees is
A thing that appeases 
The lad and the lady
Who this time say maybe
A bit of a problem
That seldom needs stopping
There’s no consolation
In carbon aged dating
What’s up with this mating
When the species is hating
Itself
Get help

Moral dilemmas
Just like salmonella
The filly and the fella
Made ill by the smell of
Immanent sorrow
When they wake up tomorrow
And look in the mirror
In absolute horror
That they are together
Through all kinds of weather
This better get better
Or they might let their
Love end
What then?

Onward and upward
We give our love to thee
Wearing short sleeved shirts
With our hearts out on our sleeves
Onward and upward
Each day is do or die
Risking all for the sake of love
Emotional suicide

But each time
In the beginning
I know you are the one
We were meant to be together
And each time
I was wrong
