Limitless

by lei-ryce

My lofty dreams drink your poison The sermon hides all talk of lust Kill it! Drown it! Strangle it. How can I ? How must I ? Do such tortuous actions My conscious thinks of you in the mist Closed doors..... In hazy heights Green mountains under the pitch black glow - wrapped in a single cloth Breathing the puff smoke I shut the door Close the tailored book Walk out in my fitted gown. Sunday school taught me repression And my succession to my thoughts was one thing - action Primed, pinned, and pointed to order In orderly fashion I defied my fathers crime Created bedding to sleep on Encrusted with words, " You're the creator of your own creation" Finding....... My chipped cross, crippled slipped underneath the crooked bed Your lips were spongy delights of chaos I wanted to grip to Diving in the pool naked felt like a temptuous sin My guardian was me I found you by the darkened pond bellowing and I gripped you Casting my light And you never said a word But together we drank the blackened pond liquid And scratched our skin with empty words, hoping we knew ...... We knew, what we were taking each other's hearts for.

Notes

A story of a young girl of a preachers daughter. Rebeling against his wishes. Learning to find her own voice. She goes against the norm, defies what she knows and is willing to take a risk to explore the life of deep passion and lust on levels that would rouse scorn and discontent
