A fine romance, with no kisses/A fine romance, my friend this is/We should be like a couple of hot tomatoes/But you're as cold as yesterday's mashed potatoes
Recently I've found myself drawn more to the non-sexual aspects of romantic relationships, to the idea of physical, emotional and intellectual closeness, but not necessarily sexual closeness.
If sex is a hot tomato (juicy, somewhat dangerous, a summer fruit), and indifference is a cold potato (unpalatable, starchy, filling, all year long), what I'm looking for is pumpkin pie (sweet, warm, a decadent celebration at a time of year when the temperate Northern hemisphere starts to get dark and cold).
