Who Do You Want Me To Be

Who do you want me to be tonight Who do you want me to be? A teacher, a school girl, a fairy bright I am tired of being me Who do you want me to be, my love Tell me, I’m longing to know A secretary, boss, or cleaning girl A nymph with a shimmering glow? Who do you want me to be, my man I want to play your game A slave in your desert haram A woman without a name Who do you want me to be tonight Unleash that sweet fantasy I’ll be whoever you’re dreaming of And guide you to ecstasy Who do you want me to be, my love I’ll be just who you desire All that I know, my man, my life Is that I long to stoke your fire!

I want you, to be my Poetess, long untouched, wearing an elegant dress, perhaps red or green, lacey or with strings, plush fabric and stockings of a Queen with your hair raised up beautifully, and more floating on your neck, to be lonesome, starving for romantic lust, I want to interrupt you smoothly, as you are composing a deep love sonnet with shimmering quill in your eager hand at a desk of solid wood...Justin

What a post, Justin....Red suits my coloring...my hair up suits me as well....You are on track with most of what you write. Then...you have described me. I do love wood and antiques...and writing...thank you for reading this write. Thank you for responding as you have. It is a tribute to your wonderful and kind heart and mind...Your soul captivates. To be interrupted as I write....You must be very adept at that for writing is my passion, and hardly anything can tear me away! ;)

Hi David! Thanks for the bit of advice there. You've made me smile. Glad we have limits on what we think we can share and not! You are wise if you think it was a bit much not to post it! :) Glad you stopped by.

Oooh-la-la. I bet your dad would faint on this one. lol. I LIKE I LIKE I LIKE. Seldom do you come across a poet/ess with the courage to write outside of the box. I've found one in you, but I'm doubly lucky because you also show eloquence and finesse. I don't say this lightly. You go, girlfriend!!! :-)

He sure would, Delysia! No doubt about that. I adore my Dad. We are very close. He spoiled me rotten as I was the last child and the only girl! But...I could always understand the love of God the Father because of my dad! :) Thanks for your kind words, I do treasure your friendship. You go, girlfriend!!! :) What a kick to say that!

I don't think it's too much. I can understand some might find it offensive (but that's like holding back, posting a poem about telephones and coffee machines for fear of upsetting an Amish person). What's an Amish person even DOING on poetry soup...? (after all that's electronics!)... sorry I'm in a weird mood at the moment...

Oh...thanks for the assurance. I'm a bit rebellious at heart. Comes with the territory. I was brought up in a conservative home. My father is a pastor and we had to be exemplary kids. Makeup..and revealing clothes weren't encouraged..neither was dancing...all for very good reasons that I accept, but I gave my poor dad a hard time. I still do! ;) Won't let him read this one, that's for sure! Oh well, sometimes you just have to let it all out.

Now Eileen, Do you really want to know the answer to that Q lol. Coz I got lots of ideas lol. I totally agree with this write, why not be someone else now and then. Is that not better than him/her seeking that someone else? Well said my little Desert Orchid. Take care, Richard

I must say.....You make Eileen seem nicer than all the others! :) Guru Jad...thanks ever so much for your sweet and caring heart. You are a great and sincere friend. :) Thanks for your support and love.

Oh Timothy...I'm sure you'll have your ways to spice things up. Not everyone is the same...some think it weird, but...yes...my fantasies do have the better hand of me. This way we can life multiple lives....I'm sure some find it offensive, and I wouldn't share this with the people in my "real" world, but...here I feel comfortable. Tell me if you think it's much..and not in jest! :)
