Lost myself

A flash of light and suddenly its dark

A tiny flicker of light comes to life with a spark

Bare back pressed against cool tile floor

Gasps for air as I thirst for more

Fingertips trace across soft skin

Fingertips take away the pain within

Breathe me out, breathe you in

Protests as you pin me down against the floor

Protests as you tie my wrists to explore

Picking up each puzzle piece, you never cease

to continue to put back together your masterpiece

And im completely exposed, nothing is left to hide,

Nothing of my own is left inside.

Soul bared to soul

Heart bared to heart

What a beautiful piece of abstract art.

Wrap me up in your warm embrace

Tracing lips and bodies interlace

I’ve lost myself, I’ve lost my name

But I’ve lost myself and all of my shame

This is another beautiful, exposed piece. The scene and descriptions are so similar to your "Suppressed" poem you penned 7 years ago... but still there is some newness in this that I like:

"Tracing lips and bodies interlace
I've lost myself, I've lost my name
But I've lost myself and all of my shame."

Beautiful and poignant.

Also I love the metaphor regarding the abstract art and piecing back a masterpiece.

Beautiful, expressive poetry. :)
