Control

When you try to control
You're mind becomes a stall
Waiting for people 
You look towards betrayel
When your eyes are marginal

You want them to listen
Listen to accept only you
Need them to do whatever you
 Need to do

For your own sake
Throw control in the lake
You do not know the taste 
When people realise

Dirty tricks won't work
Your mind can't think
You will only blink
And see what's left
Control is a theft
