Platonic but passionate

ANTICIPATION - Platonic in friendship, Passionate in thought.

Why! Oh why does it come and go
This aching heart, from a crippling blow.
I can mope around or be up beat
Anticpating when we will meet.

I saw her last, for a drink and a chat
Not much since, no card on the mat
Never knowing what I will miss
Anticipating if we will kiss.

My heart was lifted by that perfect smile
A fit young body against this overweight pile
I know she is fond of my sense of good fun
Anticipating if the deed will be done.

The quickest way to end any good friendships
Is the placing together of his and her lips
I'll never find out what I have missed
Anticipating those lips to be kissed

I will keep in touch with this alternative love
My feelings I'll hide known only above
Others may smile and try to be a pal
Anticipating the touch of my sweet Gal

I will not disclose the name of this girl
Who makes me dizzy, my head in a whirl
I must be discrete I cannot expand
Anticipating a walk hand in hand

To you this may sound all too sad
The thrill you get when trying to be bad
But not to me, I've already a wife
Anticipating a far better life

I'd kiss her hands, I'd kiss her neck
I'd kiss her lips, all with passion and not just a peck
Then I'd wake from a perfect sleep
Anticipating the appointment I keep

No one understands how the thoughts in my head
Are more serious deeds than being physical in bed
Who needs all that Sex, Sweat and Rage
Anticipation is better, when you get to my age.
