Manacle

Manacle
 
There was never any uncertainty before witnessing your steel eyes
eating me up like I had misjudged the calm of the glassy surface
drowning before your calculating stare.

Ignoring all signs of danger
submerged in the deep end of your glare,
there is nowhere to go but down.

Down onto my knees
where you promised to love and cherish me
although the tick of your jaw signaled treachery.

How lovely your touch can be until it clenches making robust 
souls plead and bleed for your amusement alone.

Makes my skin crawl with invisible bites and stings 
while sounds like a distressed kitten
fall on deft ears bought and paid for by your manacle hold
on everything your flint eyes behold.

After experiencing all you promised and more,
 pointed me towards the door of  merciful release
but alas
I swam too deep
so now I'm chained to where I'll never experience relief unless it's at your feet.

Tricking Astrid (Ch 1)

    Chapter 1 Astrid thought the world of her boyfriend. They had started dating after meeting on the dance floor of a club she frequented. The club was called Bounce and boy did it every Friday and Saturday. He was extremely handsome, which at first made her wonder why he chose her. She wasn't unattractive, just the typical brunette type who men usually found boring at first glance. Blondes had better fun, right? He'd romanced her, made her feel special in little ways until she thought she was in love. Remy was his name and after three months they had yet to have sex. She was never pressured or approached by him like that. What they had gone beyond physical admiration. But after three months she did begin to question WHY they'd not had sex. She lived alone in a two-bedroom house left to her by her deceased grandparents. In actuality, she had no living family. Her friends were few, mostly ones she'd occasionally see at Bounce. She went dancing to cure her

You

YOU tell me I shouldn't care about YOU,      that all your promises were heartfelt but not meant to come true. I believed in YOU. I wanted YOU to believe in us too. My heart has to learn now      how not to beat for two. I am always thinking of YOU. My memory burns with YOU. How could YOU be so cruel? J.M.
