Possessed

I’m going to possess you as I undress you Peel away every other dream Layers of broken promises That cover your heart Fall to the floor There with your shirt Discarded they lie Crumpled I unbuckle your belt That binds The failed romance I pull away from your being In my firm grip Suspended in space For a time Enough for you to see My relish as I let it drop With eyes fixed up at you I unbutton each inhibition That keeps your tenderness concealed Forcing the covering down to the ground Helping you kick it away As I reach for what you hide There inside I uncover your strength Now evident, seen I take possession of you Bit by bit As I take you in And push out every other thought Of anyone you ever sought I....take....possession Yes! Keep your eyes WIDE OPEN Don’t think Don’t blink I’m here Look at me LOOK AT.....ME! In my eyes No lies No disguise I mesmerize Hypnotize Make you VISUALIZE ME My flowing back hair Your only true covering All you'll need I feed Feel me take control Body, mind, and yes….I'll take your soul As I devour you whole I nibble and taste Not a bit of haste Hearing you beg and plead In need Now…. yes….now... F~**R~**E~**E~**D***** FREED!!!! And I sigh Satisfied I see you crumple As down you lie Depleted of self Depleted of her Depleted of everything Everything but me P O S S E S S E D!

A 7+ rating if it were possible. I don't have much to say considering that the most relevant has already been said. But I can see the difference from those writes where you are at a loss and in doubt, when compared to this assertive poem in which you are completely in charge, mentally and physically. // paul

I have missed your visits, Paul. I'm glad you have come back to see me. You know me well. My life is one roller coaster. If you read my earlier writes...this ferocity is there too. That is from before you were on the sight. Perhaps read...YOU RUN....in which I am the huntress and he the prey. This is not a new theme with me. This is who I am. Thank you for your visits, my dear.

I just had to lose myself, yet find myself again in this poetic stunner, and it won't be the last time either Eileen. You deserve praise for the brilliant psychological metaphors in this amazing Art of Desire and Conquest. J.A.B.

Desire and conquest are very central to my being. Control is sometimes sweeter than pleasure. Perhaps it is because one feels needed, alive, and essential to life. Yes, thank you for seeing the metaphors in this piece. It is reminiscent of my write...And the Poetess Said. Perhaps you could also read The Prostitution of Her Love to understand this particular write better. Thanks for reading. A second visit is a delight!

A priority Possession, a dangerous, reblious Angel you are with the ardor of Aphrodite and the aggression of Athena. Devouring yet liberating, loving but also seizing your satisfaction. You are beyond visual, you are ecstacy actual! FAV. Eileen...J.A.B

Yes, there is a rebellious streak in me, Justin. It's always been there and at times, I have to try very hard to suppress it. In the community in which I live...it isn't easy at times. The last line of your post is a real thriller. Thank you.

Now this is an ooh la la to the tenth power. Even my new air conditioner can't cool down the heat coming off the screen!

Thanks, my dearest Sunshine! I must be strong to survive. Writing helps me survive. At least I can live my dreams here. Hugs
