Love Poem: Friends and Lovers

Friends and Lovers

A friend will hold your hand,

a lover will implant his burning fire within you....

A friend will gently caress your body,

a lover will imprison you with his thrusting passion...

a friend would search your face,

a lover would lick the moisture from your wet lips....

"Can a friend and lover be the same?"

Is the friend ...light and goodness you treasure or

the lover...dark and lust you desire?

What pulls your heart?

A friend who waits like a knight in shining armor or

a lover who preys on your deepest, dirtiest thoughts.

The friend waits to hear your voice,

the lover demands you moan at every thrust.

The friend and lover can be one person,

but two sides of the same coin.

Which side do you want to see tonight?

Be careful what you wish for....

a gentle soul can become 

an animal of lust.

Friend or lover?

Love will turn to passion

at the merest touch.....
