Sometimes....
I hate you
for causing me to ache so desperately
my body a fountain of flowing need
filled with desires that twist this mind into previously unimaginable directions
sometimes....
I hate you
for giving me pause to question so thoroughly
this life I currently inhabit
and the lack of nourishment it affords
sometimes....
I hate you
and want to jump on your body and beat you with my fists
scream my rage at your face;
shout my anger in your ear
often....
I love you
for understanding when,
your furious child's capitulation
needs nothing more
than your particular brand of subjugation
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm ... . A powerful entry, indeed.
ReplyDeleteA very lucky Man.
very raw and intense. i liked the power,the overwhelming fierceness of the peace, and then the last line. "your particular brand of subjugation"
ReplyDeletesums up the core of submission.
nice poem!

well said. it's often at the edge of another step deeper into submission when anger rises, whether it be from fear or passion. clearly, you are pondering your submission on a variety of levels. may your submission always be a work in progress, a labor of love.
ReplyDeletesmile...thank you, anonymous person, but the Man is not as lucky as the woman.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Finbar....I definitely felt "raw and intense" when I wrote it; I am trying to, lately, convey "accurately" how I feel, as opposed to romanticizing my emotions (and words) for the effect.
Yes cp, I am pondering submission on a variety of levels and in a variety of ways.....as it becomes a stronger and stronger force within my life. Thank you.
Say it sister!!
ReplyDeleteCharli, I have to say you have an uncanny ability to convey honest emotion in a way that completely involves the reader. You are a very talented woman. Well done!
ReplyDeleteLoved the picture.

Capitulation is one of the most intense phase in this kind of relationship...
