uttered by a stranger
felt better
than an entire childhood

you desired

Erotica, R-18+
I want to be cared for
Whilst being abused
Loved whilst being lashed
Caressed whilst choked
Heard whilst harmed
Touched whilst tortured
I want to trust someone
Enough
To degrade me
To demean me
To destroy me
Only to build me back up
Stronger
Sexier
Safety in your arms
Or under your boot
Or wherever you want me
I’m yours
In my totality

maybe i’m not shy
or introverted
or defective
or broken
or any of the other put downs
my mind likes to offer up
maybe
just maybe
i am exactly who i needed to be
to survive
cautious
careful
considerate
maybe i learnt
to look before i leap
to consider all possibilities
to be sure before allowing myself to relax
maybe that negative voice
only speaks of the version of me
that has his guard up
maybe
just maybe
if you get to know me
if you wait long enough
if you earn my trust
maybe then
i’ll let you in
maybe then
you will see
who i really am
This poem is from the book, ‘Poetry from a Dark Night of the Soul’.

You say you love me,
But you don’t know me,
Not the full me,
Not every part of me,
Not as I really am.
You say I should open up,
That I should share,
That I should let you in,
Into my inner world,
Into my mind, my emotions, my everything.
You say you will accept me,
But that’s a lie,
You don’t know me,
Not all of me,
Not the parts you haven’t seen.
Do you know yourself well enough?
How will you react to me?
What will you do when I show you?
What will you think of my darkness?
My pain? My weaknesses? My desires?
No.
You only accept the parts you’ve seen.
Then you make assumptions,
Of yourself,
Of me.
That I’m not that bad,
That there isn’t much more,
That embarrassment holds me back,
That you can save me,
That you would want to.
It is safer to hide,
To show a just little,
Just the parts that are acceptable,
The parts I have practiced,
The parts that work.
You don’t love me,
You just love those parts,
You just love the surface,
Your love hasn’t touched the depths,
It never will.
