Knot Maker

The first four words
ever spoken by you
had me tied up in knots,
I know now the game
played softly of course.
I promised then
this love-drawn devotion
would always be yours.
And on that soft bed
you truly swore
to lay in wait
wanting the feel of rope
to take all balance away.
There are things
I can ask of you
and no one else.
Beauty in transition
the sky turns moody
and from the start
there is this vision
I’ve always had of you
bent over softly
my positioned doll
you’re lovely of course.
Another layer,
tighter please,
you ask
only if it pleases you.
Wrists are offered
up as gifts
so the kissing hour
can start.
her room gets dark
the temperature code
on fire
next to her
I can honestly say
I love
you.
