The loss I feel right now is immeasurable. <br />You were my greatest lover, <br />There are no words to describe the heights <br />Of ecstasy, the countless nights of pleasure <br />You brought me. <br />I needed you, and you were always there. <br />Now, now when I need you most, <br />You are gone, and my efforts to revive you, <br />To bring you back…are to no avail, <br />You…my Hitachi Magic Wand. <br />I remember our first time, together, <br />The shock and wonder and awe, <br />The powerful explosion you caused inside me. <br />I knew then, I could not live without you. <br />Was it because I was unfaithful to you? <br />Because I tried to replace you with flesh? <br />You know, you were always the one <br />I came home to, the one I needed <br />The one who always, always <br />Brought me satisfaction. <br />I trusted you would always be there, <br />In the drawer of my bedside table. <br />Waiting for me, ready for me, <br />A flick of a switch and you'd purr for me. <br />We didn't need any of those attachments, <br />No silly batteries, <br />We were fine, you and I, as we were. <br />You knew all my pleasure spots, <br />I never had to fake anything with you. <br />I could just be in the moment, <br />Crying out yes, YES..YESSSS <br />As you brought me to completion time and again. <br />I should have known, it wouldn't last… <br />That some day, you'd grow tired <br />Of my constant demands, the way I use you. <br />Then set you aside. <br />I admit, I tried to replace you… <br />With a rechargeable cordless Sharper Image, <br />But it never had your power, your strength. <br />And I don't know how I can live without you, now. <br />I'd better go shopping.<br /><br />Sandra Brennan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/on-the-demise-of-my-greatest-lover/
