Cage of Fate

***This is one of the first poems i ever wrote (thought it isn't the very first) I like this poem, though compared to my newer ones it isn't as good in my eyes, but i am still proud of this one. Hope you like it.***

Frustration. Fear. My cage of fate.

My emotions engulf me.

You have the power to bring me up

or pull me down.

Why you have this effect on me is unknown.

Why do you do this to me?

Am I just a puppet for your pleasure?

Do I do your bidding, bow down before you?

Just for your love? Just for your devotion?

Why do I do this?

What is it I really feel? Am I scared to lose you?

Or scared to be alone?

I live not for myself anymore. My life is not my own.

I am your possession, your pawn, your trash.

I’ll be forever dammed, and forever yours.

Forever love, or forever hate.

Whatever the case forever shall be my fate.
