by: Sir Wolfr1 2002 It is my honor to release to all of you the long awaited poem. It is with great pride that I offer it to you. It is a poem of love and the struggle between a submissive and the Master she is soon to discover she is to serve. It speaks of the great pain, passion and trust between them and then the joining of their souls. It is straight from my Master's soul and was perhaps one of the hardest to let go of. It has always been my honor to release my Master's poems but this one is special. Enjoy. Smiled at the woman's demand that he step aside For the bridge was narrow and the river deep and cold He saw within her something she could not unto him hide "I shall fight you" she threatened to him "I shall do battle and win for many have fallen in my wake" The Master smiled and beckoned her to come forth And give battle for far more than she was at stake They clashed there together on that bridge without further words And still not a word did the Master speak He took her blows without flinching as his tears stained the bridge She wondered who this man was so strong and what is was that he did seek At last her strength failed her as she stood gasping for air Still the man stood bloody and unbowed She cursed and she screamed at this giant that refused to give way When from their feet both heard a crackling sound Moving swifter than lightening the Master knew what he heard And gathered her quickly unto his breast Like a child in his arms carried her back the way he had come As the bridge crashed to the river below unable to stand the test The woman looked at the man with questioning eyes A question the answer to which she must know His strength had been many times her own she did admit to herself But it was a strength he would neither use or show "You took all I had" said the woman in her awe When at any moment you could have like an insect brushed me away I spent my strength upon you like waves upon a beach But at the end it was my life that you saved before thine" The Master sighed and they stood there And smiled a smile that did infuriate her so He brushed the dust from his leather trouser leg And then turned slowly to go He paused in the gathering twlight dim To look back upon her questioning eyes And smiled a soft sad tender smile Deep within her soul the woman began to realize "I am the Master who has lived in your heart The dreams about which you have never told a soul I am the faceless man who you are helpless before The one who takes hold and controls I am her with the strength to take that which you long to give The control to give that which you yearn to take I am he who you will build your world around I am the one who the burning fires in your soul can sate But what I offer is not forced my dear For at any moment you are free if you wish to depart What I offer must be given and accepted in the same way As gifts and wtih love from the heart So follow me child if your heart says you must Thought I warn you the road is a long bitter run But the pleasures that road offers are like few on this earth To accept that both the rose and the thorn are parts of one" She called out to him as the darkness did gather There in the last fading light of the sun "You know of my dreams, my hidden untold desires But how is it that you know that it is you in my dreams I run?" The Master stopped, turned and smiled And said with a voice like silk upon fresh cream "Sweet child" he said witha tear in his eye I know it is because it is about you that I dream"
