Young Love

Two young people did meet
He handsome and full of lust
She pretty and all so sweet
She too trusting and he in heat
The attraction was there for all to see
In time came the I love you and you love me
They spent many hours just have a good time
Then one night they crossed the line
Now they are married and number three
There is a problem as you will soon see
Back in the day when all had just begun
They thought of nothing save sex and having fun
No questions were asked and no answers given
They built no foundation for the life they were lining
The fires of lust in time burned out
They had not an idea of what each other was about
Time took it's toll and life became a strain
Living soon became emptiness, loneliness and pain
None of their ideas of the future were the same
Somewhere in this time they became four
Trapped in a life they wanted no more
Now bitter and in pain they point at each other and blame
For the mess they have created they should be ashamed
As it happens all too often today
It's the children who now will have to pay
All because their parents let their bodies not their minds
LEAD THE WAY
