Sex Versus Love

Submitted by Frederick La Feroux

This poem made me smile. This poem made me think.

Is there any truth in this poem?

Sex Versus Love

Sex prolongs life
Love shortens it.

Sex is something upbeat
Love is plummeting down.

Love is larger than life
Sex is life itself, no frills attached.

Sex is like saving money
Love is like spending money.

Love is chaos
Sex is peace and order.

Sex raises self esteem
Love makes you vulnerable.

Love is selfishness
Sex is toleration.

Sex is exchanging energy
Love is wasting it.

Love is hell on earth
Sex is heaven on earth.

Love is sleepless nights
Sex is sweet dreams.

Love is a narcotic dependence
Sex is detoxification.

Love is spartan and redundant
Sex is simple and quintessential.

Love is commitment and chastity
Sex is friendship and reminiscence.

  1. Jack Said,

    It is the perception of LOVE and SEX that is important. Personally I feel that the two go ‘hand in hand’.

    I note you highlighted (and I am not sure why?):

    Sex is like saving money
    Love is like spending money.

    Personal note:
    Sounds like you have a money issue, I hope I am wrong? Money governs your life and your reward will be that you will eat, but you will not live.

    I am sorry, but I feel that you have also an issue with LOVE and SEX. To me the ‘poem’ sounds sad and bitter, do you really get the ‘point’?!

  2. Hayley Said,

    To me LOVE is more powerful than SEX.

    Sex you can have anywhere with ANYONE.

    But I guess for men it’s more about sex, for women it’s all about love. Obvious really, as men are perfectly capable of engaging in sex before they forge emotional bonds with a woman. That also leaves the question, are you talking about Love, Sex or even LUST?

  3. Baz Said,

    some interesting comments here -

    a relationship based only on sex (or money) rarely leads to love - but a relationship based on LOVE can often lead to the most mind blowing sex imaginable - in my limited experience ;-)

  4. just me Said,

    only a man could right something like that poem. it is very sad that the poem implies sex is more important than love, as loveless sex will just make you feel empty and used, unless you are a cold person.

  5. Viola Said,

    Well, as I said on my Blog www.violawoolcott.com it’s quite interesting to read comments and how different people see Love and Sex. I have actually turned it all around on my Blog, see what you think. To be honest I do not really think much of either of them. I think that both are missing the ‘point’.
