Decadence

Her Icy blue eyes, as delicate as melting snow
Grips me with such intensity 
it is with fear I think she knows

but I am merely but a peasant boy 
born into her family to be owned

 An exuberantly wealthy family 
old money into which some banks are loaned

She's a delectable delicate creature
small petite and refined
A true living doll
whose beauty transcends space and time

Her hair is as fair 
as the sun shining through fields of grain

But if I am to be honest to oneself 
she brings to my heart only shame

Her eyes devour me hungrily
without affection
she asks things of me 
that I even fear to mention

But Lust! Such all consuming Lust!
I am a strong,well muscled, lonely peasant boy
forced to grovel at her tiny ivory feet
Because I must....

I cannot hide my feelings
for they seem too good to be true
when she forces me to touch her
warm lithe bodice 
I feel anew

I feel equal to her
as we become equally united 
our souls quickly become consumed
with overwhelming sensations
feelings of love that cannot be misconstrued

Alas can our feelings for eachother be true?

She delicately nibbles on small decadent chocolates
and whispers, to me, as she delicately chews
You must go, filthy stable boy, I am finished with you.
