Steel Blue

In the bowels of his dungeon

She will utter not a sound

Uncomfortable, filthy

Securely manacled and bound

She slumps

Despondently

Eyes lowered, dry

All hope is lost

She can no longer cry

Crumpled, naked

Torn and abused

Shackled by chains

Accustomed to the use

She slumps

Despair written

On her golden flesh

Unknowingly entangled

In his intricate mesh

In the night

He pays his visits

Gratification, his goal

He pleasures

In marking her as his

Master, his role

She slumps

In the corner

Wretchedly broken

And fettered

Unable to move

From the bed she is tethered

One bright clear day

She heard a quiet rustle

At her tiny cell window

A curse and grunt 

And a whispered heave-ho

She turned her head slowly

Her dark eyes staring

A large arm appeared

Inked with a tattoo

Next a crop of light hair

Then came eyes of steel blue
