Power

How can one person Have so much power over another? A person not even related to you Becomes closer to you than your own mother? They have so much power They can control your moods? They can change your way of thinking They can change your attitude. They can control your inner feelings They can make you do anything. They could take to the depths of Hell Or make your heart sing. Power like that Could be so destructive. Someone had that power over me & my life was disrupted. That person had that power over me & I couldn't resist it. They took their hold off of me & quite frankly, I missed it. They left me broken They became my desire, my need. She left me to depend on myself But I didn't know how to lead. Her power over me was Scary & hypnotic. Now I took back control That power, she's no longer got it. I released myself from her I got my life back. My heart no longer feels Like it's under attack. My heart is once again beating & everything's perfect. I often ask myself Was all this even worth it? I believe it was Because I now know what to do. Never let a person Ever have that much power over you.
