Sex Therapy Poem by Aparna Chatterjee

The pain is so much
That I just cannot bear it
Anymore…
Whatever comes my way
I use them as stop-gap
Measures.
Books, PC and the Net,
Music, Reading and
Writing…
Those healing nature walks.

Anything Goes
For short trips of
Rapid Respite.
Wish it could go
A long way…
For coping and healing.

Maybe, I should try
Sex Therapy.
All that love is now
Beyond me…
Have had enough of that.
No more for me now.

Your body speaks of
Lust to me.
And I can only talk
Sex now.
I don’t feel love
When I see your Photo.
Just Plain Lust.

So are you thirsting
To take on me?
As much as I am
Famished for some
Sex and sex and sex only
To whip the stress away…

No Holds Barred.
Let’s forget about love
And give in to our passions
With lustful abandonment.

I long for love no more.
Need the warmth of your body
To touch my aches and pains
With your healing sex therapy.

Touch Me –
Where it hurts the most
The bosom of my heart.
