Claimed by Her Own Dark Desires

Poem

She never knew it even happened, but somewhere along the way, she had cracked open her mind to the ‘darkness’ within.

Her journey to self discovery, influenced and manipulated by the world around her, taught her to repress and deny the pleasures hidden away in her mind.

Her first step into her own dark waters felt exhilarating, surprising. Not at all frightening as she made light of all that was made to be sin.

Slowly but steadily, her delicious bliss climbed a little higher whenever she dipped deeper into her sins that lay easier and easier to find.

---

Each step felt inconsequential to her as her sinful desires slowly unshackled themselves from bonds far from fresh.

Each indulgent dive into her fantasies served to break her mental chains a little more without her fully grasping the path she had taken.

Nothing to worry about and nothing to fear as she sank deeper into the fantasy of the exquisite pleasures of the flesh.

Little did she know that buried deep within her soul, the sinful desires of her fantasies and pleasure had stirred something that yearned to awaken.

Pleasure conditioned to want more and more pleasure as little by little, she found herself seeking ever more delectable joys as she dove deeper.

Snapping off every single chain laid upon her repressed desires as she removed the influence and shame forced upon her.

But as she finally reached all her hidden lustful desires and shed away the last chain of her shame.

Her sinful desires finally escaped the bonds and stepped out of the dark corner of her mind as if springing forth from some erotic piece of art.

Wrapping their invisible limbs around her pleasure like a passionate lover seeking the warmth of her loving heart.

But in truth, her sins of ‘dark’ pleasure had come to inhabit her soul, whispering seductive promises of bliss, as it took root in their claim.

Her soul was completely lost in the upheaval and shift of her thoughts and desires, making her fear what she had let herself become.

Only to realize with a soft and genuine smile, that the sinful person she suddenly found herself to be.

Was no less the person that she had always been underneath all those chains she felt she could not escape from.

​Her journey into the dark revealed that in her soul, there were no longer any chains of shame, now that she was claimed and completely free.
