POEM| Tired of Being Your Slave

POEM| Tired of Being Your Slave

The days I need you
you punish me
suffer me with waiting
and choose when you want to show up

The days I pretend
not to be bothered by you
you control my every move
until I am succumbed by you

It’s unfair
that I need you
on almost all the days in the year
and I’m unable to control you or win your love

I am tired
of you being the boss of me
and I need to learn how to
become your master

Can you guess what I wrote about?
