Only When
by jennie kathryn


sex is love, and love is sex
and each completes the other.
that's what some men believe,
about their promiscuous lover.

if sex is love, and love is sex,
and it's like that for any two,
then why aren't we together,
when you know how much i want you?

if sex is love, and love is sex
and that's how it's seen in men's eyes?
then, why am i wasting my time on you,
when i could be with someother guys?

because love is love, and sex is a perk
and that's how it is with me.
Only when you decide you want my heart,
then you might also get my body.
