Taught Me

Many things were learned in my time with her
I will confess in my own way
Though moments I didn't appreciate
The quality of all those days

A measure of control for my ardor wasn't always wanted
Rebuffed at points, reasons hard to explain
Seeking relief mutual climax not granted
As if a mere passing of two meandering trains

My perception was one of euphoria
For whenever she came by
Like Pavlov's dog I was so inclined
My thoughts on those curvy thighs

There were times when my attempts were encouraged
But more often something went wrong
That option no longer a concern
For that bonding has come and gone

For it felt like something was missing
A commitment that didn't evolve
Still too hurt to sort the events
Just a mystery that has been yet to solve

Maybe I linger on yesterday
More then I should or is even wise
But for now her words fill my being
You could say I have been cut down to size
