My body and You

NinjaGirl

Yours

Taste the red on me

Just a form of currency

You will leave with glee

 

Taken

Your joy is not mine

But your hands are on what's mine

Your pleasure haunts me

 

Overtaken

It creeps up at times

Stealing me again--what's mine?

I want back my mind

    Cool write. Reminds me of The Pixies somehow. Where is my mind?

      This poem NinjaGirl speaks of yours and mine and the space between. Is our mind really ours?

      • NinjaGirl

        Who knows!

      • Tristan Robert Lange

        🥷, this is stark and unsettling in the right way. Each section tightens the grip, and that final plea lands hard. Thank you for having the courage to write and share this, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

        • NinjaGirl

          Your trauma remains and causes much pain.
          (Beyond acknowledgement there can be little else from here - none closer to home?)

          • NinjaGirl

            Ha, ha, don't worry I have my own land!

          • Friendship

            This poem seems to revolve around a complex relationship characterized by unreciprocated feelings, loss of agency, and the haunting nature of desire. The poet grapples with the idea of being overtaken by another's desires, leading to a loss of self.
