A Yearning for Love

[Seth]

Touch me- the words echo through the night.
Take me- the sounds of ever yearning plight.
Send me away and make me scream-
'Tis a nightmare turned into a dream.

Some would call you a whore, some would shame
But I wonder if a broken heart is to blame.
A body quivering in both fear and need,
Not caring about the blood that exceeds.

I caress your cheek, my fingers shadow cuts...
And you hiss, but you haven't had enough.
I thought you would shout out of absolute fear,
But instead you are only pulling me near.

Crimson blood drips from my knife beautifully;
Your body lies moaning, elegantly.
Thus a woman who I was to rape,
Opens herself up for me to take.

In this alley at this late, late hour
She is wanting to be in my power.
The knife brought up and lowered upon skin,
A painful groan is heard once again.

She winces and gasps yet begs for more,
Repeating she wants to be a dirty whore,
And I take my knife and rip off her shirt,
As my hand slides underneath her skirt...

'Tis a night where rape ends with a real smile,
And a woman's heart mends for a short while.

wow...this is awesome. Although it is kind of graphic, this may be controversial for "Uncensored". This is very unique tho, kudos for you.

Seth,
I am a rape survivor. This is common knowledge within the PoetClub walls, I believe. I can see how this can shock, and I can see how this can offend.

BUT.

I see so much more than the words you've written, this is absolutely spectacular. The form, the choice of words, the layout. This is on par with the peak of a thriller novella, I am absolutely awed.

I will say it here - you are an absolutely OUTSTANDING poet, and this is where you glitter gold.

my favourite, thus far, Seth. gah!

My only suggestion, S1, L1 - echo...
