Taught Me Not

Bind me tight
In a cold braid of metal,
For fear that I will run away.

Teach me pain
In the burning sting of the whip,
For fear that I am strong.

Teach me nothing
In every word you speak not,
For fear that I am smart.

Teach me not the word captive,
I know only that you love me,
For what reason I know not.

Teach me please
In all meanings what you mean,
For no one ever taught me the meaning of the forbidden words.

God my friend thats the loveliest thing I read in a while
Bind me tight,cruel braid of metal to my skin..hurt me
Never let me run ..teach me pain,with burning sting of your whip
I am never strong,teach me nothing,every word you tell,I am never smart
Tell me how to be your captive to your love,for I knew you loved me
For what reason ,I know not,still i know you so much loved me
Teach me all meanings of those forbidden words
How I loved what you do to me,
