To Make Love Without Love...

As you lay at night 
In all your cozy covers
I hope you think of me 
And not of others
I want to climb in there 
and feel your skin
and maybe if I'm lucky 
we may get to sin  

but is it sinning 
if we just don't care
with passions satisfied 
and bodies bear
and hands wrapped 
around waist and heart
the ending is the aim 
from the start  

is love the only way 
to this deed
or is that the word 
made to mislead
the hearts of those 
that don't know they lied
but in the end 
you hope to be satisfied  

who knows the broken heart 
that lies there after
and stares through the ceiling 
and into the rafter 
with the words I love you 
exchanged before
as the clothes on our back 
were thrown to the floor
