    This was absolutely astounding. "Here let me hold that soul for you. You've been drowning in labels for so long you've grown tired of survival, here's a moment of bliss a moment of aliveness".

    Oh Dear Goddess!!! That was heh and way more too. So much spoke to me in ways I'm going to have to watch and rewatch to put words too. I am not often speechless....thank you for bringing me one of those times.

    I watched one of the poetry rounds at NFA's this year and two young women had this poem in their programs, and they went one after the other... they took it quite differently, and it was definitely interesting to watch. One had a program about female sexuality and how it's stifled, the other about how people are put into boxes of "dominant vs submissive". Anyways, it was fun to watch, and I am glad that both of them were inspired by this work.

    I love this, BDSM. A lot of people don't understand exactly what it is, what it contains, that trust, that power, and to be able to bend. Pushing that darkness some where else that ppl will never see the light it holds, when two ppl share those moments of the gentle, to rough back to soft and loving. Just to crave that touch and warmth, and be totally on one plain only to find you end up on another. To be so close to someone, and then left satisfied and wonderful. I love this....
