Who I Am

by thisispoetryproject

I am but a slave. A slave who is pulled left And tugged right. A slave who goes which ever way the heavenly wind blows. A slave. I have no free will. A slave. I follow your plan and never sway. I am but a slave. Oh you! Who is my master, bless me with common ground! I am a slave to you.
