Monday, April 13th, 2020 - Introducing (as per site recommendations) PoetInChains247. That's me. Warning: I'm going to be voluntarily vulnerable here. If honesty's important to you, please keep reading. If not... please keep reading anyway. This can help you.
Your desires and mine have something in common. If we took them into the middle of the street and shook them out in broad daylight for the world to see, we'd alienate the neighbors. Understandable, at certain levels. I think most people have some amount of darkness inside them. I believe many people live in fear of their darkness. I know I did. I still do. Thankfully my fear is dissipating. Here on BDSMAmerica, I realize I'm not alone, and that is a core issue. When you're alone in the darkness, it's more than just painful. It's a heart-shattering, mind-numbing, body-harming, soul-breaking type of anguish. Because somewhere inside this soul of yours, you understand that you're not born to be alone, inside the darkness or outside of it.
My desires have terrified me all my life. I cared too much about what "normal" people would think. I hid my desires as best I could. Quite often, hiding them did nothing- so-called normal people still found out.
Turns out that there is no such thing as "normal." It doesn't exist. Being normal is a futile pursuit. I'm not looking for normal anymore. Are you?
