Secrets Between Sexes Poem by Robert Edgar Burns

As human beings we all learn how
To manipulate one another!
Women give sex to get affection.
Men give affection to 'Get Sex.'
Men truly are less relationship oriented
Than women are, simply by nature,
Don't try harder to meet their needs,
Because plain and simply, We just don't get it.
People rarely realize they are doing this.
These needs were put there by the Creator,
But rarely does the opposite sex
Put the others needs ahead of their own.
And often mistakenly simply believe
The other must already know
Of their needs without having to be told.
Communication here is of the utmost importance,
Without it your needs will never be met,
Or be able to meet anyone else's.
I have learned all of this the hard way.
We weren't taught these things in school and
Girls just seemed to expect men to understand.
it seems to me if we fail to teach each others needs,
We will actually know less, (education in reverse)
As the years go rolling by!
So ladies, no man who is being truthful
Will ever tell you he absolutely understands you.
If you hear this from him, he’s lying!
If you want him to know, take him by the ears and
Show him the one course he should have learned
In school, but no one ever took the time to do it.
Some people are computer savvy.
Men are simply 'Women illiterate! '.
We all aren't unfeeling or uncaring
About the others feelings.
We truly are ignorant and dense and unknowing!
Teach us please for your own sakes and ours!
“TELL US! ”.
