Growing wiser

Growing wiser

I've loved and won, I've loved and lost.
Par for the course I must suppose
and never stopped to count the cost.
As every normal young man does

Young men are expected to
sow their wild oats with abandon
and this is what most young men do
before they can become mature.
If she is willing so are they
They satisfy each others itch.

As you mature they realise
that one night stands are not for you.
that life is better shared by two.
A truth you've come to recognise

So you give up your carefree ways.
The time has come to settle down,
you seek a partner you can trust
a lover who can share your dreams.
If you are lucky you will find
the woman who is meant for you.

These words may or may not be true.
They are for me. Why not for you?

Now these lines right here made me giggle a bit. It's just so true it's funny in a sense. it's a serious thing when you are at the age, but later on in life I suppose you will regret it. I have friends who have become pregnant because of this mistake. I am still at this age, and haven't really felt the need to resort to that... I agree with you 100%.... I want to find that special one... not to be bounced around from guy to guy with the fakest of a loves... LUST


great write, and an awesome read... :)
