Submission is not a gift

Submission is not a gift.
it is not wrapped up in a pretty ribbon and perfect folds
it is intense and sometimes ugly in its raw form
It is bound in the will of the sacrifice
Tried by tears of pain, effort and truth
Once you let go and open yourself up
once you are stripped and naked
You are chained to a need, bound by it
and its stronger than any collar around a neck
more seductive than any poetic words or charm
To submit to it is to give one person
the power to completely destroy you.
To surrender to it, to accept it and to ultimatlyl love it.
And in turn to find the strength to not fear
but to trust that person not to destroy you
For them to love you for your beauty and strength in the act
to respect and appreciate your sacrifice
and to bind it to his own will.
