I loved you
but you
tried to
live my life
make my decisions
as if you could
I asked
and asked
then begged
For you to give
my life back
From your
clenched
white hands
and you never
did
because you couldn't
you wouldn't
it would kill you
almost a form of
suicide
you couldn't do
what that would do
and you could not see
that it was true
that you could not
control another life
no matter
how hard you tried
