Sweet Surrender

Post by Kailashana » August 18th, 2011, 10:19 am

Please don't ask
I do not tolerate submission
well,
it is not a fine art nor a alchemy
of elements forged on a whetstone,
a thin red bloodline crossing like two swords
of Damocles, hanging like a prayer;
I can't conform to your opinions
and you can't draw from my conclusions,
I have none
but if you come to me open-hearted
and let me be who I am,
I'll be your chair, your bath water and
your bed,
and you'll be my poem,

we'll be ancient in amber
we'll be the timpani of skin harvested
like dreams of liquid gold
and winter wheat,

like Nubian skies, like
azure seas.

the very best thing you can do for someone you love is not try to change them into your own creation......the good stuff lies between our mutual independence, and that must remain to bring out the very best inside....that means don't get seduced by potential ( in the hopes, with a few tweaks, he/she will be just fine )
nicely expressed........
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

but if you come to me open-hearted

and you'll be my poem,
o spurt spurt - heavenly spurt ! 8)
Doll, you may have found a place of rest but I'm still on the trail.
