A Forbidden Sight

NCastillo

I enjoyed watching a lot
I rarely get caught
I see things I’m not supposed to
Intense visuals as I come out an obscure loo
I reject the morals I’ve been taught
I placed myself in a tight spot
Are my actions in search of a desire I sought?
Or are my actions just plain taboo?
I enjoyed watching
Has this happened before, I forgot
As I stare, my heart is shot
I watched them suffer and had a good view
Screeched and writhed in agony as they turned blue
Was it wrong? Ha, I doubt it’s not
I enjoyed watching

About this poem
