Do Not Think

Do not think for a moment that you can shed me like a skin, that you will emerge all shiny and reborn on the other side of me.
Do not think for a moment that you can trespass in my pleasure and remain pure unstained.
Do not think for a moment that my pleasure is restrained or affected.
Do not think for a moment that you have seen my depths or learnt to swim against my tides.
Do not think for a moment that you know me simply because you have caressed my naked form, or because we have lain together, our bodies entwined.
Do not think for a moment that I am yours simply because you have chosen.
Do not think
For a moment.
But feel,
Become part of my skin
My pleasure
My depths
My form.
