Antonym Love

I say, “I love you”

only to keep you

not so much that it’s true



I am greedy & I am needy

& can’t seem to

quench my immaturity

we will wine & dine

dance & romance

please believe another

beautiful woman may

steal my glance

don’t get me wrong

our sex is strong

& let it be no wonder why

your stay has been so long

& although we fuck

you are truly the last

person I will trust



you are simply my

bedmate,

(for real you are top 7

of my best dates)

kept woman,

other woman,

painted woman,

concubine,

(it really trips me out how you

believe you are mine)

prostitute,

shack job,

(I am being honest when I say

you give unparalleled blow jobs)

call girl,

easy make,

tramp,

whore,

ho,

piece of tail,

(you know a real relationship between

us is bound to fail)



the thesaurus did have a longer list

and a lot of adjectives I did miss

I just want you to understand you

are as important as a Thursday night

episode of ‘Grey’s Anatomy’

seriously, you really mean that

much to me

you are almost the best thing

that has happened in my life

well of course, except for my wife





But please always remember this,

I say, “I love you”

only to keep you

not so much that it’s true

Adultery is a horrible thing and ultimately hurts all involved!
