PLAYMATE LOVER<\/p>\n
I\u2019m at the crossroads of time
\nMy life is in flux and I need to choose a path
\nthat will satisfy both my heart and mind
\nAll I want is love, yet I hate to be smothered<\/p>\n
I need a playmate lover
\nOne that will come over when I call
\nand laugh at my jokes or read my books
\nand then have a long discussion<\/p>\n
When I\u2019m tired I\u2019ll kiss him on the cheek
\nand send him home for dinner
\nI\u2019ll curl up and check my emails and play
\nwith kitty or make witty remarks on Facebook<\/p>\n
When I get that feeling, I\u2019ll call him back
\nI\u2019ll use him up and feel smothered again
\nI\u2019ll send him home to his own bed
\nand I\u2019ll curl up with kitty in mine<\/p>\n
But then the feelings start to come
\nJealousy if I think I\u2019m not your only one
\nSame old conundrum that I face each day
\nI want a lover to stay, but also to go away<\/p>\n
