Reduction

"..but when the sun hits your eyes, through your window, they'll be nothing you can do."

Beneath the sheets you would never had known that we were not lovers anymore

                     

                   Above my heaving body,

               His eyes scan my open mouth

 

His hand beneath

        Firm on my lower back

                 Bringing me to him, guiding

 

My paramour, my great love

So simply I fall into him, falling into me

              

               I have recklessly abandoned my defences

                          I allow him entry into the fortress he creates

   He breaks my heart and spreads my legs still

 

Love...

     

I do not doubt his heart

I doubt his good-bye, this is not the lover lost

                              

                                 Does it mean a thing to you my love, the night? The morning?

       Do you do this because you love me still, or because I am good

                  My great love, reducing me to flesh and bone

 

He prepares me for the binds I will put on my heart

Prepares me for the men I well let enter my body

 

Corruption

 

The darkened sky, gives way to stars, that used to be ours, now I can barely lift my eyes to the heavens.

 

I have lost the gifts above

and have given way to the filth below

         

                   Receive me

                        I am spent

Author's Note

For Sean..
Who broke my heart, and gave my body to men.

The first bit reminded me of a Hardy poem, in a really round about way. Really good write though, captures the emotions.

[fallen0lily]

Very dark, and moving..
This has emotion in it, and behind it. I am inspired by writings like this..

[ChristianM]

This really hit me personally because it reminds me of an old flame of mine. Never really connected emotionally. This was very beautiful, masterfully written. Very emotional and from the depths of the heart.

[Platus]

It's nice. I especially liked the way you used spacing to scatter the word across the page.

[GioVonnie]

This is very powerful. The emotions in this is dark but personally heart felt. I enjoyed reading this thanks for the request. Great job by the way

[Shayne Harnden]

amazing work! Giving everything to that someone is hard. It is harder to find out that it means a lot at the moment but at the present it doesn't! Thanks for sharing!!!
