The Wound of Pleasure

The Wound of Pleasure

A Poem by Ed Piers

I've been stuck and yet I have to find my way out.
Been travelling across north and south.
But all of the places seems haunted
Seconds, hours and days is tormented.

Once I was enthralled by this magical disaster
But now I find myself to worry thereafter
So lost among the sea of worries and anxiety
But to whom I shall lament to, to thee?

Been rocking in the same place every night
I never heard my screaming voice in fright
Have been afraid for all of my life
Sick of this song, give me a knife

The sound of the ruthless heartbeat
Pushed me to the end of the cliff
The sound of the rushing heartbeat
Pushed me to the edge and stiff

Then let myself drift and wander
Hand in hand, we pulled ourselves together
Drowned in the sea of sheets
Pushed it in until it reaches the limit

In the warmth of each other we feel
Insensitive, as we make our way to the peak
A night full of carnal desire
The wandering soul and shattered mind

When body dwells this two has been bind
The eagerness of that dreadful situation
Has been reached the maiden drowning in conclusion
That it's something you can control, just mind

While others tell of the consequences
Yet you let yourself be in that chain of mess
A moment of pleasure traded for a risk in pain
Emotional and physical, acting in vain

After those moments of pain and pleasure
There's something that the soul cannot endure
It may be a pleasure in banker's time
But the scar it left may last a lifetime
