submit

I want you to just stop fucking talking
so I can take my time to move in and kiss you
among this power play of gestures and words

I’m on top and we both know it
and still you’re trying to talk your way inside
when I’ve laid bare how it’s going to be
if only you’d take a moment to give in
to the things you say I want the most

I’m on fire inside with wanting
like a weakness that I can’t control
and it makes me like you more
makes me want to steal away your embrace
and fuck you with violent tenderness
with me in the driver’s seat
because I know how much you want me
to submit to your touch
and I’m just not having it

if you want my submission you’ll have to earn it
though you’ve been breaking down my defences
since the moment we met
and I’m wearing this poker face
with cracks in the façade
that I’m well aware you can see through
as you slide a hand around my neck
and talk against my mouth
our lips not touching yet

and oh, how I want to bite you
into submission and leave you writhing on the floor
in pain and ecstasy
so next time I can be the one
to let you chain me to the wall
