Something a little different for this week’s Wicked Wednesday post. A friend wrote this recently and has been too anxious about it to post himself. It is such a beautiful peice I wanted to share it here. I agreed to post anonymously for him. Please give your honest feedback on this young man’s writing. I am sure we will see more from him in the future. There is no picture, as his words paint a picture no photo could do justice to.
Enjoy,

For The Taking
by A
watch, as I build myself up
wait, while I learn to stand on my own
for that is the time for my taking
take me to my new home
my new piece of clarity
this is where the most damage can be done
chain me, tie me, bind me, blind me
all that I see, hear, sense, is yours
I am yours for the taking
whip me, beat me, break me, take me
my body is yours for the taking
tear down all I have built up
destroy what I have become
separate my soul from me
for it is yours, for the taking
now is the time to build me
now is the time to create me
I am yours to do with as you wish
to make, to mold, to shape, to be
everything I ever was is no more
I am only what you let me be
new body, new soul, new heart, new being
no need for me to be for the taking
for I am now forever yours

Wow! I love that! You can pass on great feedback from me. It is evocative and beautifully written. This especially is wonderful:
tear down all I have built up
destroy what I have become
separate my soul from me
for it is yours, for the taking
When I joined in WickedWednesday 5 weeks ago, I made a promise to myself, to always use the prompt & for my pieces to always be poetry in some form..
This touches me, deeply.. on many levels. He has captured the essence of submission, beautifully.
Please tell him, he’s gained himself a fan 🙂 I so look forward to more.

Great work! I understand your friend’s nervousness, but this is brilliant.
Such a lovely poem! Beautiful, strong words!

This is a beautiful piece of prose, it seems quite hungry and passionate. I like that.

Utterly gorgeous. Speaks to the poet, the reader, the writer, the submissive, the dominant within me.
This particularly resonated with me: to make, to mold, to shape, to be.
Please pass on my compliments!

Thank you everyone. He was very surprised and delighted by your positive comments. I hope he will let me share more in the future. He is quite a brilliant young man.
Wow, I’m really moved by how he has communicated the importance of both building himself up and being built up by a dominant. The first piece of that is incredibly important and should not be forgotten, and the second piece speaks to me as a dominant.
now is the time to build me
now is the time to create me
I am yours to do with as you wish
to make, to mold, to shape, to be
everything I ever was is no more
I am only what you let me be
Here, in particular, I really feel that submission. Fantastic.
