cut me with your sharpened tongue, flay the flesh from blackened bones again

strip me down to bare musculature then shower me with salty innuendo

choke me with your stare until spots form at the edge of my vision until all i breathe is you

i will gladly take pleasure from the pain you inflict upon me if it means staying in your embrace

if i deserve to be beaten let it be by your words your actions not your neglect and disinterest
