YOUR SLAVE

By: OCTAVIA R WILLIS

You like to see me cry,
So you just lie...

And when you want me to beg, you just walk away...
You wanna see my tears,
But only because they resemble my fears.
And every time you say, HI!
It sounds like goodbye.
I'm so confused, I think I've been used.
And when I called you, I thought everything would be the same...
But you told me I was to blame.
All the hurt you've been through, but what about me, too?
And every time I think of you,
I begin to miss you.
And when I see you, I walk the other way...
Because every time you say, HI!
It reminds me of when you said goodbye...
