You are mine.
An object of possesion.
I am not yours.
Superior, with thrones on top of stools.
.
Constricting your movement.
I am a Boa, ready to strike
When in terror you flee like a mouse.
You are mine.
.
Clenched fists of frustration
I knew you were upset, steam leaking
from ear to ear, you slap.
pushed back I'm enraged at your wrists grabbed tight.
I am not yours.
.
Heated discussions
rise like plumes of ash
smothering your lungs, I creep
to your side.
You are mine.
.
In public you hide
they never knowing the shadows
that lurk from behind, I am there though,
holding on tight. I am not yours.
But darling, you are definitely mine.
