On your knees

[Desdemona]

Whenever I hear those 3 little words, I know I am home; right where I belong. Along with that sense of belonging and safety, I get a rush of excitement and anticipation for whatever is to come. My focus narrows. All questions or concerns are gone, the troubles from my everyday life melt away, nothing else matters while I am on my knees or at his feet.

A soft coo ...

Sorry darlin', i don't coo, but i have been known to utter those words at a volume barely audible. Physicists sometimes define energy as either potential, or kinetic. Uttering those words at that volume brings potential to the threshold of kinetic.

Some might call it gravid and ready to give birth.

i prefer the moment before all hell breaks loose ... and i mean that in a deliciously decadent way.

They mean I am hers.

On Your Knees

This is not something He uses often, prefering 'present yourself' or 'at my feet.'

My training is still in its infancy but when I hear 'On Your Knees' i become so focused on Him, His voice that all other sounds and thoughts are blended into a non-existent state.

I know that ahead is both a soft voice and and difficult tasks as He leads me to push the limits of my pain & submission.

The feeling within me when i hear Him say those words is not one of feeling loved and cared for; as much as a slight trepidation and wonder for the journey that will unfold.

I know I am eager to push my training forward and He needs to give me constant re-assurrance that the pace of learning is the right pace. Sadly i lack patience.

These words are a signal for me that we will together move deeper into my learning, training, respect and desire for His hands, His way and His pleasure.

His Hands, His Way and His Pleasure are what i need and want in my life.

Anyone care to join in a conversation about how saying or hearing these 3 simple words has affected Y/you?

Depends on who says it. Please let me explain.

The first time, when I was stsrting into BDSM, I complied but I can't say those words really affected me. Later, when my mind was more in tune with my submissive desires, I felt a rush of excitement. I still feel this with my husband (who is also a switch) when he doms me. He tells me he feels great excitement when I domme and say "kneel" in much the same way.

A couple of years after our initial intro into BDSM, after moving 100 miles away from the original group we started in, we went to a BDSM get-together. We walked out after just an hour and a half. I was dressed in regular clothes and some doms assumed I was a sub and also seemed to think they were automatically entitled to treat me as their sub. I corrected their mistake quickly. My ire was truly raised, however, when a domme we'd never met before said those words to my husband. Grrrrrrrrrrrr.

Simply put, those words can mean many things to different people, but it also matters a great deal who says them and when. Absolutely wonderful when it's right, but a disaster when it's not. It's not easy keeping the magic in those words when you've had bad experiences like that though.

I am honored that so many of Y/you have added your voices to this conversation and apologize for not answering each of Y/you individually but to do so would once again have My face running down an entire page!

So many variables have also been spoken of in voice volume intonation and appropriateness to situation. I look forward to hearing/seeing even more add thoughts and opinions to this thread.

First of all, this is my first post in this forum, and I am so pleased it is in such a wonderful topic as this.

I love those words and crave to hear them as often as possible.

When we walk into our room, my heart is pounding and my mouth is dry. I am waiting for that simple command and when it comes, I drop instantly.

It sends a rush through my entire body and the look we exchange at that moment - one of complete trust and deep love - makes me melt.

I am his, I want to be his and the words, "On your knees," mean I am.

I want to feel owned, used as his possession, and that is exactly how he makes me feel. It all begins with those simple words, "On your knees."

I can hear him saying it now...

Hi Shadowsdream, and thank you.

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading through this thread and found myself relating to many people. I'll be sure to look out for more topics of interest.

They're just words. It's what I get when I say them that matters.

A little hesitancy, defiance being buried? Good.

A slight parting of the lips and a look of total unabashed adoration?

We can work with that too.

Tension. Sweat. Palms up, down, clasped behind?

Is it the first time they've done this? It's often possible to tell, I find.

words spoken from the right lips to the right toy in the right way are very powerful.

Thank You for adding new thoughts to this conversation!

So many have waited for what has felt like an eternity to hear 3 simple words in real time. "on your knees"

my how i wish to hear those words....my arcane knowledge of the subject is all just a waste, until i hear those words.

 

[FreeBloke]

Well then Shy, get on your knees, and we can take it from there!

Words, and their effect

I've never heard those words. Part of me longs to, but this discussion just makes me more confused. Because another part of me wants to -say- them.

Also, it would all depend on the person. Most of the people I've met in my life would get the response of me verbally dissecting them. Which is why I question whether I'm capable of submitting. I don't want to have to try to do so, or to somehow bend myself to the other person. I want someone who actually is stronger and more dominant than I, to whom submission is not an option, but a bone-deep requirement. I've met equals, and I've met those who weren't as witty, intelligent, strong, etc as I. But I've never encountered anyone who was all of things more than I. I guess that makes me switch, but I suspect I'll end up never having my fantasies realized for that reason.

I relate strongly to your stance here, and my own search for that proved ever more frustrating. (damn us especially intellectual especially picky and amazingly willful types who WOULD go there if someone knew how to inspire it)

Eventually I came to the conclusion that this was a dialogue between me and some inner sub, some ideal of who I wanted more than who I wanted to be. Your mileage may vary, but your writing struck a chord.

That is very helpful. You've given me something to seriously examine. Thanks to you and to PinkOrchid for showing me that here are other women like me out there. Woo!

 

[Phoenix Stone]

And another...

I differ in needing love and safety more than those other things. So now I have that, but... am in the situation (which seems to be common) of trying to bring the pre-sex (foreplay?) D/s out in dominant/independent type husband (who enjoys going there, but wouldn't bother if it wasn't what I wanted -- sort of an oxymoron or paradox there). And now that I know I'm safe -- a little fear would be nice. Lucky you, to be clear in what you need.

Ya know, if you happen to be into humiliation at all, the other person Not being as strong, intelligent, witty, etc. could actually be an advantage. You could debase and lower yourself! Just a thought.

Wouldn't work. It wouldn't be humiliating, it would be -impossible-. Well, there are worse things than never finding a man or a woman capable of bringing you to heel. And at least I have a fun new community to discuss it with.
