Beg for it (reprinted)

"Beg for it"
"Please" she whispers, "Please..."
"Please what?"
"Take me in the other room"
"Tie me down"
"have your way with me"
"I can't hear you"
"Tie me down and tease me" she pleads louder
"Go. Now. Prepare yourself"

She awaits him
excited
nervous
prepare myself?
she waits,
silent,
bare
perched on the edge of the bed

He enters
places his hand on her chest
in the spot
the spot that to them means he loves her
the spot that means he protects her
the spot that means he owns her
pushes her back
positions her

"spread out"
"Center yourself"
"No. Down farther"
she offers up the left ankle
the strap wraps
adjusts
wraps again
secured
right side
repeats
secured
she struggles
dutifully demonstrating slack
he tightens
pleased that she wants to please him

"Arms out"
she frowns a bit
they both know
it will drive her by the end
to the edge
possibly over the edge
of panic
in the end

left wrist
contained
extended
stretched
secured
stretched
tightened
repeat

right wrapped
he stands back to admire his work
and
adds
a blindfold

she pushes away
the alarm clanging in her head
ordering her to put a stop to
this nonsense
and suddenly
there
is
silence

calm

The side of the bed dips down
he's beside her
warm breath in her ear
right hand on her chest
on
that
spot

"Now"
"Beg for it"

I need...

I need You to pull me in with that soft kiss 

and gentle caress.

Lure me down with Your hand in my hair

and that particular touch of infinite care.

I need You to

unleash Yourself on me and set the Beast free.

Take me to my knees

make me

whatever You want me to be.

Push me over the edge and into the abyss

with Your raging kiss.

Down that road through blood sweat and years

Far beyond my fears

washing them away with my tears.

I need You to momentarily
rip away my humanity
to strip away the superficial.
to bury Yourself in my body
and roam through my mind.

I need You to flow through my soul
tearing away all thought and everything I am not.
Force me to my knees and smile quietly in the face of my screams
as I rest at your feet.

Take me outside of the lines
where the only word I hear is "mine"
where we exist
outside of time.

Cease to Bleed -- by Mockingbird

It's like being fucked on a bed of glass
When you treat me like a piece of ass
The shards dig deeper with every thrust
Until they disappear


Later all the strangers say
A lonely thing, a little plain
I wonder if I'll be whole again
I wonder if I'll cease to bleed


Fuck me on your bed of glass
Treat me like a piece of ass
Their hurtful words dig ever deeper
Until they disappear


His breath upon my ear, fingers in my hair
And he says: I wonder if you'll cease to bleed
My lonely bird, just ride the pain

Your beating heart

Lay me out on Your bed

with my head on your shoulder

the years are flying by and we are getting older.

Just let me lie here 

listening to the beating of your heart

the most beautiful sound in the dark

as your chest rises and falls with your breath

life itself signals an imminent death.

Just let me lay here forever

feeling you breath

I never want to leave.

With my head on your shoulder

hearing your beating heart

a beacon in the dark.

In some place
where I am You
and You are me
where each other is all we see
You are all I need
everything I believe in.

Just give me forever
the sound of your beating heart
here in the dark.

I want

I want
to
go back
and be
what we were
and
somehow
stop
what we are
from becoming

Bent but not broken

To bend but not break

to find out what exactly I can take

to be in that space where nothing is fake.

 Just You and me

completely open and free.

Taking a leap of faith into the familiar unknown

where I am property and You are owner.

Dive off the edge and hope to land

on that invisible bridge

as we play at the edges of reality

where what is will be

and together we are forever free.

Bent but not broken
kneeling at Your feet
waiting to hear those three little words
"you please me."

The mark of Your lips on my head
as lines burn tracks across my body
traced by Your fingertips
as You outline my soul
making me complete and whole.

No longer afraid of the words unspoken
I am...
bent but not broken.
