Taurus and The Pill

I was going to get on the Pill for you.
That small white capsule of estrogen
And progestin.
I was going to love you only
Above all other women
Above all other men.
I was going to call you my partner
On Facebook and real life too.
I was going to love you only
The words I poetically blog here
Are truer than true.
We were going to be in love
And practice safe sex night after night.
But our arguments became rougher than our lovemaking.
Our relationship became fight after fight.
We were going to call ourselves Equal
And prove to the stars that a Taurus and Aries together could last.
Our relationship blossomed so magically slow
And we ended it so very fast.
I was going to get on the Pill for you.
