The summer dawn light is dappled against the sheets and across her sleeping face. Curled on her side facing him, he watches the flutter of her eyelids as she starts to rouse. Sighing she rolls onto her back…stretching one arm up…the light sheet slipping to expose the curve of her breast. Her face still turned toward him and her eyes still closed. A small smile is now playing on her lips…like she has just been told a delicious secret.
He knows this look well and is determined not to disturb
You smirk down at the girl,
She thinks she’s so strong,
But you know just how to crack her veneer,
Smudge glistening tears clear across her face,
The slap of your hand silences her lips.
Push and menace and hold her down,
Not til she breaks only til she’s close,
It’s sick how she accepts your hand around her throat,
You reward her with coldness at most,
But the bite of your tongue makes her smaller.
And even when
some days i can't find you,
and those are the days that test...torment,
the days when i lay at your feet in wait
patience, my virtue and my comfort.
some days you're all around me,
and i'm dizzy with love and light,
you humour me and enjoy me,
your pleasure is my joy.
some days you grip my heart fiercely,
and those are the days that bind me to you the closest,
when my surrender is demanded,
and you are
The hurt runs hot…jagged…tearing me to shreds
From the inside out
My heart swells with ugly anger
Filling my chest
Suffocating me
The tears fall scorching down my cheeks
The sobs are drowning in my throat
My hands reach out and grasp at straws…marked love, hope, devotion
A moments relief as I hold them to my chest
Curling up, soothed by their promise..
Then a memory, a word brings it crashing down
A beautiful poem of love, written and spoken by a gorgeously inspiring poet..
