Bellow is my posting for this week’s prompt on the Facebook Group: Poetry in Motion.
Borrowed Words
Seduction timed and on cue
Passions borrowed
Desires rehearsed
Lost in darkness
Cold and grey
Disguising a bitter taste
A chocolate cover envelops
Wrapped in red satin and lace
Tied with ribbons of silk
The story unfolds
Tales rewritten and retold
Shifting syntax
Underlies the difficulty
With loss of insight
From words that no longer excite
But safewords nonetheless
Pages torn from a book
Scene after scene
Learned to perfection
Yearning to be directed
Guided and comforted
Alone and unsure
Imagination drifts
Open and exposed
As secrets are revealed
With words borrowed
Longing for release
