The Thrill of Being Chased

 



Trigger warning!!! The hunt begins in imagination where fear and graving carefully dance. Some games are meant to stay unplayed.

....

I feel your presence behind me,

Danger fills my body,

I like our little game of cat and mouse in the dark forest,

Feeling scared is what makes me feel alive.

Through the lens of a dark romance reader

I explore what I hid so shamefully within my mind,

Always craving one particular hunt,

Forbidden fantasies, taboo attraction,

My inner fire burns my skin from the inside.

Your shadow lingers in the corner pitch-black,

My throat aches for the firmness of your grip,

I want the weakness to consume me,

I don’t want to feel safe.

With you it is so easy, always ready to play these games with me

And flirting with my demons – never bored, a constant thrill.

My nose recognizes you even when you follow at a distance,

Trying to keep it low, blending into the scenery, leaving no trace.

The stillness of your breath has mapped my spine,

Tattoo of a new kind, where every shiver is a prelude to pleasure,

Never – ending sweet pain.

I let the fear sink deeply into my bones,

Marks of possession, so well-known to me.

I walk through the empty alleys knowing you can catch me anytime,

While the safety of the forest holds our wickedness at bay.

You make your presence clear, your raspy voice telling me to run away

Your fiend cannot wait any longer, the cage not strong enough to contain it,

You and I – a game of predator and prey.

You caught me or I let you – we will keep it as it looks to untrained eyes.

The chase is over, time to unleash what we carefully hid,

And the night is our only witness as the game ends here,

Where our wickedness begins.
