Honesty

 
I am most gratified
when on my knees,
in my proper place
of subservience,
where the responsibility
and burden of control
falls to you

where I can,
obediently,
bear the full brunt
of your cruel impulses,
and love you for it,
without being held accountable
for my depravity

where my calculated resistance
and defiance,
designed specifically
to incite you,
is met with a firm hand
and harsh,
delicious pain

And where I am
the most true to myself
