Reflections by Savannah Chase
Copyright 2012
Darkness surrounds me
I am blinded
I am bound in place
His hands run over my skin
Fingers slowly embrace my neck
Push my head back
His breath brushes my flesh
He wants me to see
Who I truly am
Callused hands
Heavy breathing
He wants to love me
The way he sees me
Stripped bare
Broken and fragile
I want you to see
His words seep into me
The beauty within you
He frees my eyes to the light
Surrounded by mirrors
Nothing but reflections
Naked and unable to cover myself
Don’t you dare he commands me
I continue to struggle my hands free
No use
Look
Feel
See
Our eyes meet
Fire consumes him
He keeps composed
I see the beautiful you
You are not damaged
He turns my face towards him
I can’t deny my lover
Hunger feeds him
I must open my eyes
Find my own reflection
For now I’m lost to his touch

I feel the power in your words, in this beauty of a journey.
Thank you, Savannah.

Wow, so well done! I’m not a big poetry fan in general, but this is HOT in every sense of the word.

Savannah, have you ever thought of writing a book of erotic poetry? I don’t even know if those sell, but your words are exquisite!

Delilah, yes I have thought about it. I might do that after I write a few more. Thank you for the suggestion and the amazing response. It means a lot. I’ve never shared poetry and this is only my second one I’ve taken the step to post. The feedback has been just phenomenal.

I am late in discovering these but I love these poems. Rich in emotion and description. May inspire me to write these…from a man’s POV! Thank you Savanna.
