"Bitte"

[butterflydreaming]

Begging to be found innocent of this,
A crime against my code of what is right,
That I remain silent in my distress,
That near his heat I have slept through the night,

I know how quickly, still, my lust could find
Justification for his hateful views:
Impulse that by force must be declined,
Unequal exchange for what I would lose.

Impure yes, and fearful of compromise,
afraid of trading surrender for lies.

On my knees I think I am too late
To be given pardon for innocence
nor for the fall I freely contemplate
only for my unchallenged ignorance.

This comes out to the question, what if you find something out about your paramour that goes completely against your mores? Can you continue a sexual relationship with someone who has distasteful or disagreeable politics? What if the sex is really hot?
