MY PASSION IS LIKE 
In my youth, my passion was like a waterfall, 
a rapid descent, a ride both exciting and rushed, over too fast, 
lots of lust, 
and no turning back. 
In maturity, my passion is like a swift-moving stream, 
a slower ride, more prolonged and pleasurable. 
Savoring every bump and if you like, 
you may get out then get back in. 
In youth, Ienjoyed passion for power, 
as a means of controlling another. 
In maturity, I enjoy passion for it's own sake, 
to see how much love we can make. 
In youth, I used passion to scheme, 
as a means to an end, a way to stay together. 
In maturity, I enjoy passion for the moment, 
living here and now, 
never knowing if there will be another.
