To continue of the #16day theme of activism for women who have experienced domestic violence which finishes on 10th Dec, here is another poem I have written...
Love is captivating
A grandeur of irresistible strength
Bars of your bent arms
Around my glass stomach
Squeezing
Until each bit of sharpness
Becomes it's own in a rainbow
I'm yours
Forever
Reflect me
To know love you must know war
Breaking down walls to conquer dreams
In the forgetfulness of sleep
Charge with a battering ram
Into my constructed soft meat
Until there is nothing left but
Surrender
I'm yours
As I lay helplessly
On your floor
Love takes prisoners
Surrounded by muscular men with scars
Who choose their own prisons
And your company
Time has no nights
Torture is optional
So, you choose to scream
I'm yours
Until you die
In his hands
Love is not love without war
