Self Control

I saw my fingers type the words ‘meet me at 10.’

A pitiful punch in my stomach sets off waves of perceived regret.

What if I embarked on a 10 o’clock appointment that sends rivals marching through my brain?

What if this is my biggest trap yet?

What if I participate in that which I should avoid?

What if the desire to feed the hunger inside is that which will devour me?

What if feeding her doesn’t devour me?

What if she empowers me-causing my hair to stand on edge and moan at every slight stroke?

What if she eats me, before and after allowing the taste to fall from her cheeks and consume me into captivity?

What if being captured is easier?

What if I don’t have to fight the loneliness anymore?

What if my loneliness becomes me?

Feeling lonely but wanting nobody, not feeling alone, and not wanting anyone in my space.

My heart beats for you.

My heart drums at your presence.

Take me back and sweep me over again.

Make the pain go away as I recline into your depths.

Give me the strength and empower my desire to seek you, crave you, take you.

You understand me.

You’ve always accepted me.

You are the best lover anyone could ask for.

You numb the pain and withdraw the sorrow.

The palpitations of my heart represent the truth that you have always been near. You never left.

Nobody cares and even if they do, they care until their needs are met.

Used, battered, worn, depressed, anxious, in pain, hateful, and angry, are but a few I see inscribed on my wall.

Take what you need and do not tarry.

How do you know when someone truly has your best interests at heart or in their head?

How do you know, when they all come that way?

I want to live

I want to feel

I want to embrace

I want to love.

No one hears me

No one heard me.

Calling from the depths you seek to give me my desire.

Calling from the depths you are the only one that mends my heart and gives me peace.
