Crush

What he takes

By Kristen HavemanPublished a day ago Updated a day ago 1 min read

His hand on my throat

-

I supped at his seduction

Scant morsels

To feed my hunger

Ease the ache inside

-

His hand on my throat

-

Scooped out all of my insides

Offerings

I piled at his feet

Oh he wouldn’t stop me

-

His hand on my throat

-

His fingers squeezing tighter

On pulse points

Draining all colours

Till stars come to play

-

His hand on my throat

-

I bend my body to fit

In his grooves

His thumb in my mouth

Power spilling out

-

His hand on my throat

-

They say the all mighty gives

But he takes

Is there compromise?

Ecstasy or pain?

    The imagery is so vivid it almost feels like watching someone slowly lose themselves. It’s powerful writing. Do you usually write from personal emotion or pure imagination
