Bounded

Sarah Brower 1995 (New Jersey)



I savor the grip around my waist
so sweet upon my beating heart
sweet love circulating to my toes
never will they fear the purple threat

Lock me in place in nostrils path
do not flare for you will loose me
shine the light in my mouth
see desire waltz across ballrooms

Keep me secure oh womb of comfort
keep me hidden behind the pouch
seek for me shelter within the bosom

Sleep with eyes open that you never dream of terrors
end the night intertwined in me
