May December

They called it a May December relationship

He was the May, she was the December

20 years was the difference

And no one could see why

 

What do you see in her they asked him?

But they didn’t know

How her intelligence captivated him

How her beauty overtook him, how her sexuality enthralled him

 

What do you see in him they asked her?

But they didn’t know

How she grew weak in the knees

When he walked up behind her and whispered in her in ear

 

They didn’t understand

How she and he hungered for each other

His energy boundless

Her passion endless

 

They didn’t understand

How well he took care of her

And how well she took care of him

In every was possible

 

They called it a May December relationship

And they liked to judge

But she knew she loved him, and he knew he loved her

And always they continued as one
