Poetry: Catharsis

by Jessica Herd

Created on: November 25, 2008

"Release"

Cry

Cry

Cry

My eyes,

Release the pain,

And my body releases the stress.

Your test-

Don't let me rest

Until I'm done.

You're the one

I've chosen to do

What I've needed for so long,

So don't let me down.

I need your strokes to be

Long and slow,

Strong and true.

I need your hands

To knead away all the tension

And turn the hard clay

To supple playdough.

I need you.

Your lips are mine,

Give my achy skin

The soft kisses it needs

All over.

Don't stop.

Let me ride the waves of your love

And let my passion

Splash over you.

Feel my sweat,

My tears,

My heat,

My quivers...

Let me release,

Let me spill on you,

My body unwind,

And clear my soul and mind.
