Revealed Within a Shadow, by memiors of a slave Subscribe to rss feed for memiors of a slave

Desperate attempt to be the cherished pet 
The yearning to make proud stifles the fear of
disappointment 
Loving discipline creates emotional bonds 
Drawing-forth new reasons to trust 

Lust rages under fevered flesh 
Wanton desire follows greedy need 
Darkness washes over shadowed thoughts 
Caged in blissful torment even with in sleep 

Chained by will leaves a silent goodbye to control 
Cause of rapture when giving of soul 
Mixing tear of joy with tears of pain 
A touching of life that will never be the same

My favorite line is... "The yearning to make proud stifles the fear of disappointment" It's very well written and has a lot of meaning. This whole poem is full of meaning. You get a 7 from me. Very well done.
