______________________________
Breathe me in,
you are my destiny
my heart belongs to you
my name is engraved in your mind
I'm confined in your very soul
stretch and bend me to your liking
I am so flexible to the touch
caress my being with your everything
you haven't even asked me to go out
but I am yours
my flesh is your flesh
my thoughts are your thoughts
you know me better than I know myself
you know my favorite color
my every move
you breathe heavy on the phone
many calls of silence
and then lightly spoken profanity
I ask who you are
but you give no insight
a curse into the phone and I hang up
you wait days and then call back
I'm worried, but that doesn't matter
not to you
So you still call
I know you're watching me
my flesh quivers in fear
but in your mind, you've won
I am yours, and no one else
but just then, I find myself
my feet planted firmly
my posture upright and un-afraid
my voice calm and steady
words spouting out like wildfire
your words edging back
calls getting fewer
your twisted fantasy expelled back at you
you have no control of me now
I called your game, your bluff if you will
the calls are fewer
and now they're none
I breathe for the first time, in a long time
I'm NOT your victim anymore.
8/18/14- Jessica Thompson ( this is just something I wrote, although I had a
stalker on the phone
so glad, it didn't go this far.)
