Asexual (for DU comp)
I wasn’t always this way
I wasn’t born this way
And if I had the choice
Well, it would be different
But I have no choice
Illness and disability
Forced me to become
What I have become
Asexual
45 years of enjoyable fuckin
Brought to an abrupt end
Yet 30 year of marriage remains
Solid, true, just different
I no longer even get urges
Or longings or erections
Well, why would I?
I am now without doubt
Asexual
It has been a voyage of discovery
I have wondered about unconditional
Love and if it really exists
I am happy to report that it does
Love without sex initially strange
Worries, doubts and fears abound
But Love conquers them all
And is stronger than before
Before I became
