What do you want from me?
Torture me, torture me.
I am not part of this
world that you want to see.

Force me down to my knees.
Torture me, torture me.
Begging for sympathy.
You're not offering any.

There are times when it's locked inside.
You've got to beat it out,
beat it out.
There are times I don't remember
just what I hide.
You've got to beat it out,
beat it out.

Take it away from me.
Torture me, torture me.
Offer me sweet candy
and take it away from me.

Do you want to see me bleed?
Torture me, torture me.
It's you who perverted me,
set my inhibitions free.



I'm really unsure, since this just suddenly burst out, whether it's supposed to be ironic or really that bloody massochistic. Hmm... Tell y' what, if it isn't ironic, let's just not tell anyone about this poem, k? Or at least, no one who'll wanna take back my dom membership card!

Actually, I see this as a direct response t' last night -- but those are instructions even an idiot like me can follow. *kiss*

I love you... And ah'm sorry for any pain not related t' that "torture."

I love you too.

An' I s'ppose it could've been about last night... It started playing in my head in this bitter Kim voice as I was walking home, then I just rushed to th' 'puter an' let it out. I don't question these things. Hell, I prob'ly don't know what half of what I write means.

Darn. All I did was listen loudly to th' Pixies until I passed out exhausted. And do you know how hard it should be to sleep with Pixies blastin'?

A plead for given yet taken and flaunted...my take anyway...

and I doubt that I could explain MUCH of my poetry anyway...you'll NEVER hear me askin "where did the inspiration come from"??? (that's a violent given!)

Hm... I think (as musta been obvious by the structure) that this has become a song now.

Hmm... I'm thinking that it is NOT on a masochistic level simply because I think it seems almost sarcastic in nature, the pleading for pain. Maybe I am just not hearing the "anger" as much as the desire to "feel" something. I liked it though.
