Trembling

My flesh is trembling with desire,

I reach out for you

And smile a crooked smile.

 

My  alter ego

Bursts into laughter

She takes her full red lips to my ear

And says “get yourself together,

Pleasure is pain and you know it.”

And then she laughs again

“This will only leave you naked,

As soon as he´s torn down your guard

He´ll step on your soul

With dirty rubber boots.”

 

I answer her defiantly

“No pain, no gain!

I´ll give it all, once again

Like I always do,

I never tire,

It´s how you play this game.

 

Let him have my heart

Rip it all out

If that´s what it takes

I´ll try my hand at it.”
