I used to know who I was.
A loyal submissive,
a playful little brat,
a girl who loved to push boundaries
just to see how far she could fucking go.
I loved being difficult.
Loved the teasing,
the attitude,
the way one little smirk
could earn me a reaction.
I loved being his good girl,
but sometimes,
I wanted to be his
beautiful little fucking handful.
I wanted to hear,
"Behave."
Just so I could smile and whisper,
"Make Me!"
Not out of disrespect.
Not because I wanted to hurt him.
But because I wanted to play.
To challenge.
To feel his attention
fall completely on me.
To know I could push
within the limits we understood
and still feel safe when he pushed back.
I miss that girl.
And I don't know
how the fuck to find her again.
Because somewhere something inside me changed.
Now I hesitate
before letting my brat out.
I question every playful thought,
every smartass remark,
every little temptation to push his buttons.
Because what if he gets angry?
What if he doesn't understand?
What if the punishment isn't the kind I wanted?
So I swallow the attitude.
I silence the teasing.
I bury the little brat who is screaming
to come out and fucking play.
And every time I do,
I lose another piece
of the girl I used to be.
I still love being his submissive.
I still crave the safety,
the protection,
the feeling of being wanted,
loved,
and cared for.
I fucking miss
the part that made me feel
so completely understood.
I miss the attention.
I miss the playful battles.
I miss hearing,
"Good girl,"
and feeling that little smile
spread across my face
because I knew
I had done something right.
those two words
were never just words to me.
They meant I was noticed.
They meant I was heard.
They meant that the girl
who gave so much of herself
wasn't invisible.
And now?
Now I'm angry.
I'm hurt.
And I'm starting to feel fucking numb.
Not because my brat is gone,
but because she's still here,
trapped behind a silence
I don't know how to break.
She wants to tease.
She wants to challenge.
She wants to look him in the eyes
with that mischievous little smile
and dare him to make her behave.
I'm afraid to let her speak.
And that fucking hurts.
Because I don't want to be disrespectful.
I don't want to fight.
I don't want to cross boundaries
that were never meant to be crossed.
I just want to be allowed to be playful again.
To be difficult without being misunderstood.
To push within limits
without being afraid of what happens next.
I want patience.
I want to feel safe enough
to be the brat I know is still inside me.
And maybe that's what I've been trying to tell myself all along.
I don't want to be punished
for wanting to be noticed.
I don't want my playful defiance
to become argument.
I just want to be heard.
I want the girl who used to laugh
while pushing boundaries
to feel safe enough to laugh again.
I want to stop wondering
if that part of me is still wanted.
And maybe tonight,
I don't know how to bring her back.
Maybe I'm still too hurt,
too afraid,
too fucking exhausted
from holding her inside.
But I can still hear her.
Somewhere beneath
the anger,
the loneliness,
and the silence,
there's a little brat
who hasn't forgotten
how to play.
And maybe one day,
when I feel safe enough
to let her out again,
I'll find myself smiling,
pushing a boundary,
and whispering those two little words,
I've been dying to say.
"MAKE ME!"
And this time,
I hope I won't be afraid
of what comes next.
Because I never wanted
to stop being his good girl.
I just wanted to feel safe being his brat, too.
never lose your true self
never lose your true self trying to be what someone else wants or needs.
