You are the queen of me,
But I am surely no king.
So many lacking
Bring me to my knees.
I look at you
And I guess;
The deprivation
Is true.
Taught me a lot,
Most of which I forgot.
You know I love you,
I can’t abstain.
I would fight or die for you,
That is my right.
Transcendent creature that you are,
But you are far away.
I have no complaints.
But I am chained, bound.
The sound of these shackles
Cuts my heart.
