Dismissing the Mid-Summer Dream
You encapsulated me in your fantasies
And I … I
would not dispel them.
You allowed your heart to be seduced
By my
softness, my yielding,
My
willingness to enjoy the moment.
You delighting in my somnambulant eyes,
The
moistness of my lips,
The way my
nipple puckered against your tongue.
You’ve taken our movements;
Added
import & drama to our words
And
elevated them to a set stage.
You … drunk on being in love …
Did not
notice that
I was just
along for the ride.
You were the bird I held lightly so,
And wanted
to be held by;
A pet,
nothing more.
But a quick-silvered, winged creature –
I would not
be held onto.
I was eluding fantasies of my own making.
