My Love is Like to Toilet Paper

Added 12 October 1997

My love is like to toilet paper,
used and useful for a purpose
(wiping breech or proboscis)
to be discarded later.

My love is like to toilet paper.
No doubt there is much to unroll,
but I fear it is flimsy,
falling apart in ones hands.

My love is like to toilet paper.
Guests come in and use it,
taking such that I am,
leaving a hollow shell.
