A LOVE SLAVE TO YOU

Vulnerably being a love slave to you,
Like a dreamer craving for success,
I sing you a harmonious tune,
Yet, all I get is nothing but torment.

Unbearably trapped into love for you,
You know, a case of do or die;
I fall prey to your malicious moods
That I have no place to hide.

Incredulously overwhelmed by your elegance,
With a desire to uphold peace and harmony,
I feel distance, tension and bitterness;
No to mention the boundless fantasy.

Intensely besieged by your inborn might,
With no choice but surrender,
I just wander in the darkness of the night
And wonder if I ought to endure forever.

Adoringly hooked to your presence,
Like a soul mate to kill or die for,
I yearn for your inaccessible silken embrace,
That I might know no more.

Desperately contacting you online,
All just done in good faith,
Your insensitive forwarded e-mails trouble my mind
And I follow links that lead me to severe pain.

Entirely being a lover at heart,
Deeply aching for your tender caresses,
I play a dummy in disguise,
And fall victim to the evils of affliction.

Totally overpowered by your hypocritical trait,
With no guts to take it any more;
I just feel it’s about time I take my stand
And we finally call it quits for sure!
