Tender

By M. Jay Mansfield

Furious passion
Sprinkled with fire and welts
The soft smell of lilac
Tempered with loves sweet must

When each kiss promises
Promises, forever, lust
Gentle caresses from the cat-o-nine
Leather fist, opens, cradles your face

Fists beat furiously into the pillow
And your cries swallowed by your lovers kiss
Hatred creeps in and is quickly flushed out by devotion
Pleasure expands and consumes you

Your all is consumed in the flames
And you relax and fall deep into its burning
The will to go on is kept alive only by the teasing harsh kisses
They feel like fuel upon your open burning soul

Furious passion
Spent
Claimed
Given
Leaving a battered mind and a complete soul
The soft smell of Lilac
Embedded in warm leather
