Moments

As I hang here helplessly
he whips me with mercy
My pain is his pleasure
and soon to be mine
It is enough to be cared for
not taken care of
This is my wish, this is my dream
To continue to learn
to grow and to please
He is my safe place
along with the trees
Where none have gone before
At this moment
He is mine, I am his
a spiritual essence has been achieved
To be happy and whole
to be integrated within
Listen to the spirit
that calls beyond what you are
I have opened the door
to my darkest desires
Tearing down walls, replacing with fires
Fires of passion buried deep within
that long to be strengthened
Used again and again
