Be honest...

you too were young and in love

  felt the adrenaline rush

  when his hands brushed 

  your heaving breasts, 

  your lipstick lips crushed 

  with kisses that never ended

  did you not enjoy every moment

  did you not feel much desired

  did you not feel very special


Be honest...

 you too wanted to taste love's depths

  you too wanted to experience

  throes of bodies satiation

  however scared you were of 

  it's consequences 

  however wrong you felt, going

  against your conscience

  throwing caution to the wind

  you too wanted the forbidden


So why...

do you now sit on judgement

  critical of the present generation

  when they declare love in the open

  unafraid if it lasts or breaks

  live as partners unmarried 

  unafraid of what society says

  it's entirely their business

  aren't they being more honest

  rather than being sly and coquettish
