Shopping

I really love the way you smile Noticing you across the isle Your husband trailing you in tow My wife leading me down the row I remember us as we lie Our slick bodies in passion's tie We pretend to be just strangers To avoid our spouses' angers Tomorrow we will again be In each other's arms, again free I watch as you caress a cucumber I smell and pet a sweet delicious peach I see the laughter in your eyes I return the fruit and smile We live in a seperate world Both of us preferring it so We both meet once or twice each month Knowing exactly what we want I see you looking up at me From down on your knees, your lips full Your hunger and your burning need My hands caressing your long hair I pretend not to notice you As we move through the checkout line I feel your presence as I leave Pushing the cart out through the door As I load my groceries I hear your voice there in the lot I look up to your longing eyes I smile and quickly look away I get in the car with my wife We drive away discussing life It is days like these I adore Without them, life would be a bore Until we meet again my friend We return to our normal lives Both of us happy and just cool Knowing we don't play by the rules Shopping can be so relaxing I drive home anticipating (c) Copyrights G.
