KissesA Poem by Sarah FlynnKisses pressed upon her breast Scratches streaked across her thigh I love you! I roared Passion screaming through my cries Protect me I love you Find the fervor in my eyes Don’t hurt me I love you This feeling won’t ever die A look of defeat slapped across her face Her gaze unwavering Blackened by his touch Stricken by his bite The faintest quiver of her weakened arms As she tries to push herself up But anguish overpowers her might And her body meets The blood-splattered ground Respect me! I love you You know that I do But baby I beg Keep my purity true Aren’t I worth more? My heart greater than your lust? I love you Baby I’m sorry, I digress Her dignity diminished by that man’s awful smirk Her worth left no greater than one of a w***e She stared down at her thighs Her broken chest And blamed herself for letting her believe In a man who thought of nothing but sex I believe in you baby I know you’ll keep me safe But respect what I say Don’t give up my youth Where are you leading me? What is this room And what’s in this drink That you tell me to consume It burns my throat And fogs my head Where are we now? What is this bed? She pressed her back against the ground And vowed to never Never Let the desires of a man Destroy her soul Or watch her vacant mind again be fooled But alas her crumpled heart did not agree Undermined by self-hatred And his hideous grin She shut her love from any person And in return Her heart shut off from her © 2016 Sarah Flynn |
