Turning to Gentleness
I like to hear him talk of all the cost
It takes to turn to gentleness; obliged
By quiet grace, I hope, this is not lost
On him, as he insists, once he's contrived
His pleasure in my "fuck holes", he must spoil
Me for all other gentlemen who seek
To fill my head with notions: these just boil
Away to nothing, though I'm mild and meek:
The dark bloom he plants in me saps their lines
And saturnine ambitions; these are caught
Entirely short, dissected in those times
I feel direction and controls he's sought
To stand by me always; if I feel lost,
I recollect his talk of all that cost.

The dark bloom is intoxicating. You describe this love you have between you so graciously.

Thank you - your words made me think and I've edited the verses a little - i hope this improves it and makes it more comprehensible.

Such a clear tone in this. Love how the other suitors are dismissed in the line: "these just boil away to nothing."

Well done , Mi' Lady ;
Especially *this* :
"To stand by me always; if I feel lost,
I recollect his talk of all that cost."
Yet remember always ;
One who has given from their true heart ,
the deepest depths of their being , never ,
ever , have to remind their beloved of the
cost of that which they have given ;
It is recognized by their beloved , in the act itself...
For *that* is love...;)
May The Muse Be With You !
