Princess I Be

So…..

you called me

you spoke to me

you jump up

as I find reprieve…..

according to you

that time before

when you told me you were letting go.

You alone

knew what I could handle.

you alone

knew what was best for me.

Huh…..

thought I was a grown ass woman….

Guess not

for you told me different…..

it was up to you

to let me go so there would be……

no hurt

no anguish

no pain?

Then

you disparaged our feelings

said this was not true

I look at you

frown on my face

wondering what is it that you do?

You fear.

You wish.

You plunder.

You are afraid.

Play me a love song

play it true

sorry baby

you fucked me once

twice

now

you must earn

relearn

the princess I be…..
