Even though I\u2019ve lived for 80 years,
\nsometimes I feel the desire for a mate.
\nI would have thought my age would have
\nobliterated that feeling, that need,
\nfor a female companion in my elderly life.
\nDespite the many reasons my mind
\ncan find why being with a woman
\nwould be too risky a proposition
\nwith the possibility of a painful outcome,
\nsometimes my mind reneges and
\nthat desire, that need, resurfaces.
\nI don\u2019t act upon it. In a way I don\u2019t
\ncare. In a bigger way I see the many
\ndisadvantages and suppress those
\nunwanted feelings that now
\nI wish I\u2019d never been born with.<\/p>\n
