Unseam me,
unzip me,
unseize me,
strip me of
this and tease me
tasseled laughs
and pink-rimmed smiles
Pure as lakes,
deep singing eyes
I’ll fall into your hands
strings unraveled
I’ll be your puppet
eyes paint-dazzled
pull me forwads,
pull me close
I’ll keep you warm
I’ll be your clothes
Your doll to dress,
your toy to play,
my puppeteer
I’ll have your way
Tie me up
in these strings
fluff my ribbons,
draw my wings
Powder my face,
paint my lips
meet my eyes,
sneak a kiss
I’ll be your puppet
my puppeteer
I was having a real brain-freeze because it's months since I've written a poem.
Finally I got my rhyme and creativity going, and I came up with this.

Being a puppet is seen as very negative most of the time, but it can be something of a fetish.
I write these days from my own perspective, and I always have out of habit.
So implication of this having to do with Wess and I is indeed not a coincidence.

Fetishy fun. He's coming to visit again in 5 days... I haven't seen him for 50 days.
So I felt the need to write this.. Daydream, you could say.
Child, ribbons and bows, dress up and dolls. It's funny how even my childlike nature is reflected in it.
Anyway, enough of that. I'll leave it for you to interpret.

I never edit my poems.. So they're always raw, keep in mind.

Knowing you don't edit, I ignored a few spelling issues and rythmn issues (lines 14 and 23) and went with the whole thing. I really like it. You have a gift for rythmn and the occasonal rhyme, you truly do, and I really love this poem.
