Blood, Water or Me

Blood, Water or Me

Then he spoke, the lady in me shuddered.

Softly as he breathed deeply, the woman in me blushed.

Slowly but with ease, my inner person flushed.

The way he gestured left me secure and uneasy at the same time

What does he want from me?

Why is he speaking to me?

Why this way?

Why now?

Countless questions bubbled through my head. If only I could figure out an answer for just one of them I would be fine.

My heart on the other hand was warm and at peace.

This body of mine had started giving way and hardly had I noticed.

Noooo!! I exclaimed

As I gasped for another breathe, trying my best to stay afloat.

You also can tell I was nearly there. Drowning and sinking deeper

Nearly suffocated yet breathing so fast.

How does one resist this?

My head couldn’t stop swaying here and there, pondering and asking questions.

What if and what the….

I did not want him to let him get to me. I couldn’t

He’s done this with so many.

He knows what he is doing

This I kept on telling myself.

In frustration, I decided to walk away but my feet could not let me.

I felt glued, it felt like I was walking away from a lifetime

Well, what’s a lifetime with no life?

Oooh, I choose life.

Truth is blood is thicker than water but I had to let me grow.

I guess I am grown.
