Insecurity - I feel sufficated in your arms.
cradled tightly in your bosom I feed
like a glutton.
Assured by the sweet milk which I can not stop from flowing across my lips.


Oh please, I can not stand to believe in your banter of why I should cower and continue to weep.
But what if I try to wean from your teat, only to find my back won't go straight?


But oh how your sustanance fills me heavily-until one day no more will I need but you.


So I must give way to a whole new unknown, and drink from the glass of bitter and sweet-
Happiness lies dormant inside me waiting for that glass of self esteem.

Janna,

I really liked this one! It's smooth and intelligent and sensuous without trying to be. Nice work
