He uses them for everything
They often don’t mean anything
He leaves them with nothing
Varying degrees of his
Needs or wants
Determine the depth
He is forced to
Or willing
To go
Gluttony being his
Favored sin
He feasts upon
Their emotional
Need
Savoring the flavor
Of collective fear
Seasoned lightly
With his own
Desire but a word
Ecstasy a button
Easily pushed
With a pressured curve
The same spot every time
No matter the shape
The age

It was a long, hot summer – each day that passed bringing her one step closer to autumn – knowing he soon would be there – brining with him, cool relief from the relentless, sweltering heat that only grew in intensity; and then there were days, like this, when she simply couldn’t go a moment [...]

“Come sit with me,” he said, easing back onto the couch and watching her walk across the room. She could feel his eyes caressing, taking in her every move, causing self-consciousness to flood her senses – to the point that she was unable to look at him, for fear she would say or do something [...]

Shrouded in mystery
Hiding behind the veil
Uncompromising position
Never giving in
So thin at times
Thought she saw inside
A glimpse of his reality
Buried within the illusion
Illusions can be grand
He whispered softly
Turning out the light
Taking her by the hand
