Flimsy are the lover's vows

My body is my temple
alive on this godless earth
mine is the only hold I know
solitude; the mock reward of birth
Oceans of flesh rock around me
lust fuels the masses like a drug
the escape and taste of another
before moving into yet anothers hug
My body is my world
meant to build a life with one other
one with just as much strength
the gravitational pull of a lover
Alas, I find nothing but sleaze
fallen monkeys on dirty knees
Damn you, transparent makes of life
who offer the heart nothing but the knife!
My body is my gift
but interest often ends to short
true love is the true illusion
this is all that Ive been taught...
Life is, sadly, a finite thing
but strangely too long to share with just one other
I am a fool for fidelity
thus will never have that one true lover
My body, I treat with pride
flimsy are the vows of the bride.
