AN INSTANT CRUSH

An Illusionary Quest

AN INSTANT CRUSH

Everybody thinks that there's no such thing

as an instant crush that will make them sing;

it's the stroke of a painter's brush,

it's the smell of a meadow so lush!

Colors can be lively or murky,

they paint your sky blue or cloudy;

images depend on a certain mood;

seize your chance and be shrewd!

Your dream guy may not be handsome,

and he's not a cause for ransom;

devote your time and passion to one,

and be promised pleasures to come!

Your lust is breaking his trust,

he holds you while your desire strays

to another guy who has better looks;

why be unfaithful and pursue lust?

Once you swear your devotion,

you must not leave his arms

and be very thrilled by an instant crush

that will be conflicting with lies;

emotions feed blood to the brain in a rush...

he's able to exploit your obsession

and make you his own possession!

An instant crush sends the message across,

first, consider heartaches and losses;

do you seek endless nights of pleasure,

or someone who's warm and tender?
