THERE IS A MOMENT by cinnamon

there is a moment, when you can feel it happen before it does... the anticipation that builds before the inevitable. your ears strain listening for the slightest sound, you know He is there. Darkness... You can feel Him... somewhere in that darkness, you think you can hear His breathing or His footsteps across the floor. your body tenses and relaxes almost inately. He is waiting... Your body's visceral response is to flee, but you can't...you can't even defend, all you can do is wait... Sweat builds, your body quivers, and all you can do is listen... there is a moment that you want to react, but it's for nothing, He is too smart, He knows, He has done this before... you begin to relax, it seems like an eternity has passed... it hasn't! The tails fly through the air, you know it's coming, your body tenses, a loud WHAP, and nothing, you don't feel a thing... He struck the wall right above your head, your heart races..... There is a moment when you can't anticipate, He is in complete control... all you can do is just lay there, your mind swirling, your body craving. There is a moment that when you are in it, you just give in completely and just let go.... You are free....
