A Jealous Woman

A jealous woman am I…a very jealous woman
For you, dear, are MY man, my very own possession

Yes, I do own you; you are under my lock and key
Don’t you dare now look at her, for you belong to ME!

My love is a gilded cage, but a cage nonetheless
If you dare try to escape, you’ll suffer…I confess

You know I will track you down, and then I’ll make you pay
I’ll bring fire to your nights and torture you by day

You are branded with my love; it's plain for all to see
Revenge on seductress will come swiftly, trust in me!

The fire that burns you up when you are in MY bed
The self same will sear your heart, if you love her instead 

You see, my dear, you’re mine…all mine…mine and ONLY mine
Baby, don’t you mess things up, and I will treat you fine

I’ll be your muse and your slave; I’ll be your everything
Ask of me your every wish; I’ll treat you like a king.

A jealous woman am I, a very jealous woman...
But if you stay my own, I’ll make you taste of heaven.

Demetrios Trifiatis Date: 12/18/2014 10:00:00 AM Congratulations on poem of the day, my "Jealous Woman". Well, my dear, why a man, if he were to be with you, would have any reason whatsoever to look at another woman? Charming poem for those who love to obey you! Hellish for those who would think not to! No comment from me because the comment has been already made by your crowning as Queen of the Day, dear Eileen! Login to Reply Eileen Manassian Date: 12/18/2014 5:49:00 PM Yes...you are right, my dear poet. It is a SUPERB comment! :) Efkharisto....filakia Demetrios Trifiatis Date: 12/18/2014 2:59:00 PM It makes me happy your poem to be the POTD! As far as comment is concerned, my congratulations and my seven I think is enough for a comment! Eileen Manassian Date: 12/18/2014 12:36:00 PM :) Zelevo...zelevo..zelevo. Ti na kano? Thanks for visiting, my wise poet. I'm happy to see you here. Who would look at another woman? Indeed. That is a sweet sweet sentence to my heart. :) Thank you. Yes, I do like to be obeyed. I'm silly that way. Queen of the day...very strange...and hardly any comments. Perhaps I'm not the only one who is jealous! ;) Those I care for have commented, and that should do. Hugs, my dear.

Tim Smith Date: 12/18/2014 9:27:00 AM I love this...big smiles...I had to look at this through your poems to see the picture and quote Charma was talking about....hugs Tim Login to Reply Eileen Manassian Date: 12/18/2014 12:37:00 PM :) Hope you found it.

Hugs Eileen Manassian Date: 12/18/2014 6:41:00 AM Are you serious? I'm doubting this POTD system...Seriously...how does it happen? I'm not complaining, but....I write my heart out in sonnets, and this and that and this gets chosen? Well, I guess now everyone will know...I'm A JEALOUS WOMAN! ;) Thanks Maurice, for being the bearer or good news!! Hugs

Paul Callus Date: 12/17/2014 1:20:00 PM Ohhh how very expressive...both poem and photo!! I don't think I've ever experienced jealousy...and I don't think I would want to be on the receiving end of it either! // paul Login to Reply Paul Callus Date: 12/17/2014 2:55:00 PM Mind you, Eileen....instead of jealousy there were a few times when I experienced pain and disillusion.... Eileen Manassian Date: 12/17/2014 2:44:00 PM Paul....a little jealousy can be good. no? Well, to each his own, I guess. I wrote this some time ago....Yes, I am a bit possessive and can be jealous...What's mine is mine...But life teaches you many things....Jealousy can be destructive as well...and sometimes whether you are jealous or not...things don't change, so...what's the point. Thanks, Doc, for this time here on the couch. I hope you don't charge me too much. ;) hugs

I have something on the last four. You know how much I LOVE pics from FB. In fact, I save great pics that I love and when I'm down...I go through pics to cheer up. SO happy I can do that here. oh...Forgot about the typo. Will fix it. Thanks.
