Back Off

Both males & fem.s

Can be clingons after

Sexual relationships

Know that for a fact

Even if you agree

It’s a hit & run

It does happen

The thing is that

Not solely attracted

To what’s best for us

Sometimes we play

Often landing us in

Big, trouble or places

We don’t want to be

By then – it’s too late

Personally, I love flirting

It’s exciting & enervating

Makes you feel alive, but

Despite revealed personalities

Despite any faults uncovered

Despite any consequences

Despite it all – we act

It’s so hard to resist

This animal side of us

Sad, for future happiness

The trick is to back off

The faster the better

As willpower wanes

It’s not easy, for sure

But, sometimes necessary

For ultimate contentment.
