I won't be.

I dunno :)

                                      I Won't Be.

Who gave you permission,

To enter my heart ?

And now like a vampire,

I can't keep you out.

I won't be impressed ,

By the way that you love me,

The way your body knows mine,

How they fit together like pieces of a puzzle.

I won't confess the way you make me tremble,

Or the way I yearn for you,

When you aren't here,

Or the satisfaction I get from making you mine.

I need to be the victor,

So why do I bend to your will ?

Without a single protest,

I accept you and everything you promise.

"...I need to be the victor,
So why do I bend to your will ?..." the raw desperation in this can almost be heard as a plea. a plea to be craved for as much as you crave. a plea to be set free...i love it!

[Jetta Zippora]

Loving and caring for someone can be so difficult at times. Great write. I feel all the emotion in it and relate so much to your words. I have that same pic for one of my poems :)

[Vidya Bacchus]

Thank you so very much.I must read your poem :)

Oh how bittersweet is love sometimes... It makes you feel vulnerable, confused, overwhelmed. It can also make you feel such need, such longing, such passion.. It sneaks in like a thief in the night, taking your heart and making you a slave to the emotions.. I love the subtle questions, thoughts, and doubts that you convey here to a heart newly tormented by these feelings.. The last line truly makes this poem. I really enjoyed ma'am... nice job...

[Vidya Bacchus]

Aww thank you girlie.You are right love is a multi faceted emotion fer sure.

Umm Hmmm :)

Very nice depiction of a love hate relationship unlike that in a creepy movie or soap opera. Truly, falling in love is the biggest taboo as love knows no limits, break all barriers which in turn is forbidden, not particularly loving someone.

Thank you very much Penny :)

Love versus lust and the many feelings that seem to trap us in the ever deepening labyrinth of what our hearts and minds produce.

[Vidya Bacchus]

Exactly right Troy.Thank you for reading :)

This was the tale of lust and the uncontrollable effects and response of our bodies and minds. We wish to shun the one who makes us the most needy and weak, but unconsciously need and invite this kind of energy to us.

I loved this, for I can relate, 1000% to these words.

[Vidya Bacchus]

I need to be the victor, so why do I bend to your will?

Because love is a strange beast. I am so glad that you stumbled upon my poems because it's allowed me to find yours, and I love them.

Lovely poem Vidya..
"I need to be the victor,
So why do I bend to your will ?
Without a single protest,
I accept you and everything you promise."
That's the best you could say to describe your immense love :)

[Vidya Bacchus]

"So why do I bend to your will ?
Without a single protest,"

I take this as an abuse relationship that sucks the victim dry from all even their will to protest and some victims muster the power to resist and some succumb to the cycle. In you title, you have stated:" I won't be." so you took your dignity and life back while you still yearn...Excellent...:).........

[Vidya Bacchus]

Thank you Sami K you are right.Been a while my friend I hope all is well :)

[Sami Khalil]

Yep. You are welcome...:)..................
