Trust (sonnet)
I trust in my soft smile to help him ask
Himself what further action he desires;
It's clear that my intention is to mask
My reservations, lest my reserve mires
His aspirations with some mild revolt:
Quiet pleas for him to moderate his acts,
Or tone or mood to force him to a volte-
Face that he'd not wish for. It could tax
His credibility to compromise;
So, I'm inclined to surrender without
Those safe words others need, so no surprise
Affects their congress. I, in any bout
Of fucking, discipline or forced control
He may exert, will just entrust my soul.

Nothing like a passive beauty, who lies in devotion and trust. It might be fatalistic but there's still the element of risk. No safe words! That alone is enough to make me raise my hat to you, if I had one. Fine work, SweetOblivion!
I have a hat - blue straw with cornflowers - lovely weather here to wear it in. Trust is the key to pushing the edges and to a resilient sense of self in my experience.
