Kiss me and you will see how important I am

Inspired by Sylvia Plath's "Kiss me, and you will see how important I am."

Kiss me, and you will see how important I am
because flesh is a man’s way to try my worth.
Someday, I want you to care to understand me,
but for now, I urge the sensuality to hook him into me.

Yes, flesh is a man’s way to try my worth–
flesh is the first layer of it all.
So I pray my sensuality will hook him to me.
I know no other way to be wanted.

Flesh is the first layer of it all,
so kiss me because it’s the only bait I have.
I truly know no other way to make myself wanted
other than offering a taste of my physical cage.

Kiss me because it’s the only trap I have,
desperately trying to capture you, enrapture you.
By providing a taste of this physical cage
will you want a glimpse of my mind?

And I am determined to capture you, enrapture you,
just so you might care to understand me.
Maybe, someday, you’ll care for a glimpse of my mind, but
kiss me! I’m begging you to see how important I am.
