Love Is Not A Young Man’s Game


Can you feel her sadness
before she sheds her tears
Can you embrace her doubts
before she shows her fears
Do you simply hold her
when that is all she needs
Does she feel truly heard
wherever her heart leads

Do you know her body
as if it were your own
Can you calm thrill ease her
with love she’s never known
Can you simply take her
with tender confidence
can you make her feel safe
relinquish reticence

Does she share her laughter
can you get her to smile
Can you forget your pain
to hold love and reconcile
Do you depend on her
when you are feeling low
is your life together
enough to let love grow

Is she all you will need
in body mind and heart
can you fight and make up
stay loyal when apart
destiny is union
re-union some have said
woman man communion
there life and love is led

If this is how you feel
if this is what you know
if love’s respect is real
then depth in love will grow
love loss you face as one
together on life’s stage
nothing counts but passion
most certainly not age
