"once you sleep with someone, it’s hard to ever get together with them again, no matter how much later, without thinking of the physical closeness that was, or wasn’t quite, or might have been.
that’s got to be the “love” in “making love” talking, even after so long, or else my thoughts of those long-ago nights spent together, so out of place in the here and now, wouldn’t be troubling me today, amid all this sickness and sadness."[#]
