Slower

By swf27texas

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Swallowed whole is my pride .You left your mark.Watch this, this is my handSlipping out of the last grasp of your fingertip.How do you like that?I won't let you see how deep you go inside of me.Smiling, I will flow through your presence.With out even blinking, you will never see.Watch me move with all my glory.Across this room I see you watching.Oblivious to your scratchy voice in my ear.Slower are my steps without your lead.But watch me dance away from you.Sober are my thoughts of your callouses brushing my cheek.Drunken, I will swollow you away.Wicked is your bondage.But you will see my angelic grace.I won't allow your indulgence.Don't watch me like that.Don't assert your envy with those eyes.Eyes so clear as doves.I can keep your pain out of my eyes.But a small voice keeps repeating deep inside of my soul.All that I refuse to feel.Don't let your jelousy rapture your bearing...you taught me that.The impact of your jelousy dominates me.I will not submit.Savage here in your presence.Free with my vengeance.
