Ribbons of lace intertwine,
With grace, they bind my ankle, forming a bow.
Within their gentle touch, a chill starts to seep,
Down to the depths of my being, where emotions creep.
Your words, like a tempest, swirl and twirl,
In my soul, longing, a spell so enchanting,
Captivating my spirit.
Biting my nails, down to the quick they go,
Anxious spirit restless flows.
Daydreams,
Slicing lemons.
Sore nail beds, they sting, as I peel away,
Cuticles, a restless act, in my desperation to sway.
Chewing off my own flesh,
Inflicting pain upon myself, in a self-made isolation.
I cry out loud, a desperate plea for release,
To let go of the pain, to find inner peace.
But as I grasp my chest, tears transform to
laughter, as joy breaks through.
Moving forward, I leave a mess in my heart, overwhelmed by life.
Into a bar, I venture to seek,
A momentary escape where memories leak.
Once upon a time, not long ago it seems,
I spin a tale of passion, as my heart redeems.
For pleasure, I find refuge,
To mask the pain that silently does
In the depths of desire, I lose myself in bliss,
As I surrender to passion's most tender kiss.
Behind closed doors, I've found,
Where the ache in my heart is momentarily drowned.
But as I emerge, embrace,
Reality seeps in, leaving traces on my face.
The obsession, the longing, still lingers in the air,
And I'm left yearning, consumed by the affair.
So I wander through life, seeking anew,
Searching for answers, as the days continue, I find my stride,
Navigating the chaos, with love as my laced ribbon, how do I let go?
