Atrophy

Within pleasure the essence of pain
stirs an awakening
the knowing love will hurt too much
but I want you
so, I endure the pain as it plunders my senses
until I want so much
and I can’t
instead my thoughts drift
to a different dimension
an out of body transition
so, I can fulfil you
yes, I could say not now
or go wash my hair instead
but
seeing the pain of rejection
prick on your eyelashes
I can’t endure that

I am a freelance writer and poet and started writing after raising my two boys as a way of discovering just who Jez is. That is still very much an on-going project but the journey so far has introduced me to many wonderful friends and fellow writers through an ever growing love of poetry. View all posts by Raven
