This aging thing...
Eh...
I don't fear it.
I don't stress it.
I don't 'plasticize' it
Or over-moisturize it.
For it is what it is-aging.
In fact,
I embrace it.
Pull it close...closer,
Like a bare sinewy chest
Pressed tightly to mine.
For me,
you see...
A woman of my years,
48 isn't fatal...
It's downright fun.
Its my prime time.
It's a reawakening of senses
Of sensuality
Of insatiable desires
I thought long dead with the past.
But no......
Ohhhh no.......
They are very much, so very much
Alive and needing.
For after too many years
In a deadened state of being
-Untouched
-Unloved
-Unsatisfied
...I walked proudly away
With a high-held head
And the desire to find love
A desire to be
-Touched
-Loved
-Satisfied
For there is no way
I will ever again
Settle for
less
Or miss out on this-
The most
Erotic
Rhapsotic
Hypnotic
and exciting phase
Of my womanhood-
-My prime time
To be loved
And to love.
