On Longing

On Longing.


Torture takes many forms. I have said this often, and it is true across many kinds of torment, both physically and mentally, in a BDSM bond. 


 Sadly, the worst torture comes when a Dominant and submissive must be apart. And this torture extends to both sides of the D/s coin. 


 When a submissive longs for her Dominant, she will lapse into memories and try to regain that special combination of peace, contentment, and bliss she feels when she is with her Sir. She remembers his face, his eyes, his hands, and the way he holds her. This invariably brings her to an intimate memory where she is kneeling at his feet, content, and waiting for the opportunity to please him in any way he desires. 


 Ironically, when a Dominant longs for his girl, he runs the same movies in his head. He remembers her beautiful face, her smile, and the lines and curves of her body. He remembers the way she feels in his arms, and the way she sings to him. He almost always ends up with an intimate memory of her at his feet or curled up against him, her body still quivering in aftershocks. 


 Longing is a torment of the worst kind. But after longing comes reuniting. Big smile.
