I Don’t Want It

Capitalism.

Supply and Demand.

Things that determine worth.

If supply goes up

Then the price goes down.

That's just how it goes.

People just give it away now a days.

They just toss it to some random stranger if they can.

A three dollar drink can lead to it.

It's expected as the "norm" to have it.

It doesn't take much to get it.

Sex.

I'm talking about sex.

So much talk about it.

So much shown about it.

So much heard about it.

From advertisements to music to movies.

It's everywhere.

Virgins are prudes

And sluts are praised.

But it's so backwards.

If sex is so easily attainable it's worth goes down.

It's not special anymore.

A wedding night is just an excuse to do it even more than you already have.

I have different reasons for staying a virgin until I say "I do."

But even if some slipped away.

I hope I'd stay the same.

It's supposed to be magical and special.

Something you don't give away like you're gonna lose it tomorrow.

Sex is not supposed to be as meaningless as a scoop of ice cream.

It's not a nice treat that you get on a Wednesday.

It's special.

It's love.

And if it is not with the only one I have completely committed to

And am completely in love with.

I don't want it.
