Since when did sex equate to romance

Equate to love

Equate to marriage and holy matrimony?

Can’t early morning “breakfasts-in-bed”

And cuddles at 4 in the afternoon

Watching the happenings of the world

In oversized clothes

Surrounded by Chinese takeout

Just as easily equate to romance

Equate to love

Equate to marriage and holy matrimony?

What about conversations over the World Wide Web

Voices over the receiver

Emails sent from different time zones?

Can’t long distances equate to romance

Equate to love

Equate to marriage and holy matrimony?

Since when did sex mark the seal of romantic love?
