I don't know where I'm going
or quite who I am
I wait in the shadows patiently
for you to discover me
and uncover my soul shaded with pain
glorious colors of red
in my need I am freed
in my desire bound
for the want of you I put away pride
in my sanctum is my greed
it longs for your touch
deep within my hollow spaces
I ache to be known by you
a woman of hope
I cultivate the fantasy of you and I
allowing it to grow
though I doubt deep down
that you would see me true
bring me to your hardness
and penetrate my honesty
and make me yours

“Penetrate my honesty”
That line totally got me. The image works great with the poem. The vibrancy of the red is striking and there is so much going on. Makes me think of a tumultuous love affair. Is the image yours?
What a perfect pairing.

Blood Red just jumps out at me.
Up top is optimistic
Down below is wounds and blood letting
Tough one to interpret
But like when I paint I leave it up to the viewer to tell me what they see.

thank you beautiful poetess I usually share me paintings in our gallery group here as they usually don't fit what I'm writing... I deeply cherish your thoughts on this they are insightful to me things I really didn't see until it was pointed out to me 💕

This lived up to the tag #lust. The pining for the other; even shedding normal restraint to get what you want and need.
These are great lines, "in my need I am freed, in my desire bound"
