No Promiscuous Love

In opening yourself to love

what should you be conscious of?

The danger of not escaping

a mistake you are making.

Love making may be understood

as something both thrilling and good.

Exhilarating; but you must

be sure it is not only lust.

You can tell if your love is nice

if it doesn’t have a high price.

Love is the way you want to live

by expecting less than you give.

You are not really amorous

if your sex is promiscuous.
