No you can't have her no more!
You are Forbidden to see or even look at her!
His master yells, and raps him in the mouth for disobeying him,
Young man seated there in the darken room
with only the memory of her now,
he remembers her sweet voice as she sings to him while working in the field.
With her loving eyes and golden sun kiss hair, they would steal a kiss or two when the master wasn't looking.
Oh How he loved the way she moved and spoke with her voice dripping of honey.
When midnight came and the young man ran to his forbidden love.
they shared a night he would never forget.
When daylight came, the master had the young man on the table
with his bottom up, the master was beating him black and blue.
I told you never to see or look at her again the master yells and give the young man a hard slap with the belt.
Maybe now this will teach you to obey me young man.

This left me wanting more details of the circumstances surrounding the happenings described. Of course, that means that it caught the interest. I could see it becoming a part of a larger work, but as a stand alone it has merit as well.
Thanks for entering.

Ooo I like this! It seems to have a story behind it, but it's as if it's up to the reader to decide what it is. I enjoyed it - a good write.
