Darn You, Mister

(25/12/2011)

Darn you, Mister!
You drag my heart to yours
Chain my heart and throw the key
Force me to be your shadow

Darn you, Mister!
You sit me on your deepest heart’s layer
And hug me even harder
As if I will leave you suffer

Darn you, Mister!
Don’t you know?
Unnecessary to beg me
To bow to you,
Is what I’m willingly to do

7th place in P.D.'s Contest 'Free Verse' :D

Sounds like the greatest complaint to have, Dinda. Not much to argue about when you find someone you practically worship... haha. Loved the attitude in this!

This is great!...Writing of relationships whether real or fiction can sure get the audience stirred up! :0 The heart sure don't need coercing, does it? ....Glad the Poetry Notebook poem caused you to pause and think about what this 13 yr old girl must have suffered thru Hitler's Final Solution...that was the intended purpose...They were masterful at invoking fear and made lil rats and puppets out of them! Love, Gwendolen
