• cold as you

    You never loved me. You lusted, yes,and you will spend your yearsseeking me between other sheets.Submitting will nevermore taste as sweet.You might not be capableof romantic love, but I believed you —more fool me — when you offered higher loves.More, I believed your friendshipcould outlive dying embers.I try to write a poemto explain the way…

  • your daisy

    I wanted youto be an act of self-harm,a pain that calms,my own blood the healing balm.It’s not as darkas it sounds. Those who look downupon a focusing cut, do not understand the grounding,comfort,clarity, and inevitably they damage themselves in their own way,but with less self-awareness. Be it drink or drugs,the toxic relationships into which they…

  • You’ve Got Mail

    Discreet, but nonetheless a collar,this pretty restraint was intended as a sign of ownership, a displayof your devotion, a reminderof my Dominance as Queen of your body and mind, your time,your choices. The irony is searing,its arrival today a slap to the face.- you don’t own him – it mocks- and you know you never…

  • Redbreast

    My red flagis I still don’t really believe in my worth,(I thought I did)and that’s what’s stopping mefrom telling you the truth. Red-faced at the idea of being caught red-handed, catching feelsfor you.It’s not that there is any reason to be ashamedof finding you attractive. You’re not the problem. It’s that I can’t bring myselfto…

  • I want…

    I miss you, butI’ll never describethe darkness of those depthsunless you ask.It’s notthat I don’t want you to know,don’t want to risk a vulnerability.I never want to be the Eve to your Adam.If you wish me to be your sinI will never have it saidthat I was your temptress, your downfall,though Heaven knowsI’d let you…

  • no shame if you did

    The truth can sting, but I know you can take it, beautiful. You knew the risks,messaging a sadist. You certainly take a lot for me, from me, but right now you’re going to have to suffer my tenderness, the tenderness of the caregiver. Sometimes that’s harder than ending up covered in welts, I know. Sweetheart,…

    Your dominance comes so naturally, I fearyou do not know that my submission does not. Do you realise that I am my own safe harbour?I do not fear much, and I do not fear letting gohere. I am ready to hand you my kingdom keys.I hope you do not regret unlocking Pandora’s box.More paradoxes: the…

  • The Switch

    Demure, shy, nervous even, you seem. I am unsureif it is your age, a relative inexperience, differencesin social reciprocity caused by the autism I doubt is diagnosed,or maybe I’m intimidating. It would not be the first time. And I – I am a force with which to be reckoned, some days I worrymy confidence might…

  • Ero-tonic

    Optical illusions. Have you ever seen two lines that appear paralleleven though they are not? We agreedon many things. We agreed this is a love.We agreed that this loveis both platonic and erotic,and most certainly not romantic.Neologising.We named it like intrepid explorersbelieving they discovered new land.I categorise the thoughts and feelingsI hold towards you; some…
