There I Go Again

There I go again.... Having another thought.
Another idea that you did not give me.
I should be empty...ready for you to fill with your reflections.
I should be vacant.
My own intellections are inconsiderable...trivial.
My world is your own. I should exist only in your perspective.
My sensibilities don't count. They are only shadows
that fall behind with your permission.
I should have learned to remember my place in your world.
The place where I stay silent, while
You gain dominion over my will.
Steadily...with no remorse.
Conquering with convictions.
Growing stronger.
Your power is all that I allow you.
So fill me!  Fill me!
Teach me not to think.
My thoughts only lead to your condemnation.
Tell me I am happy.
I am happy.
