Paradise

Your grasp held me tight
A willing prey I dutifully oblige 
embracing your whip I find happiness in its cut
with a smile I gladly take each strike 

It’s an addiction
your infliction, a bittersweet lure
I fear the beauty in my affliction
yet drawn to your masochistic strain 

My obsession 
An opioid to my pain
The screams from your oppression 
A soothing balm to my wounds

In the twist fate of longing 
I pity my suffering, no,I love it
If there was ever a home
In your shackles, there it would be
