Two Witches

One woman desires what I desire, and will do anything
and go anywhere to find it;
However, she is a liar and cannot tell me the truth-
She would do anything for me for money
and doesn't care what she has to do to satisfy me

The other woman has standards - She would prefer
not to do things with me unless she has to or wants to-
When she does however, she is loving and giving;
not with her words, but with her actions to my body-
When I am with her, I find myself liberated.

Is it any surprise who I find myself drawn to,
or who I seek when I find myself alone?
One is an offspring to my desires-
She gives me what I want but lies-
The other liberates me every time I find myself with her-

Is it any surprise who I find myself drawn to?
One is loving and giving; not with her words
but with her actions to my body-
The other would do anything for me for money
However, she is a liar, and cannot tell me the truth-

Is it any surprise who I find myself drawn to?
