Abuse of Power
You have this control over me
Able to twist and turn my mind and body
You didn't ask for this to be
Nonetheless you got it baby
All of me, everything I am is yours
I submit completely every time
No need to use excessive force
I confess my emotional crimes
Gladly put my hands above my head
And surrender as you take me to bed
But still, you abuse your power
Let me sit and wait for hours
Keeping me alive but unnourished
Disappearing before a story can flourish
Never telling me what I am to you
Or when you'll let me leave this interview
Am I a victim, a criminal, a suspect or just a witness?
Haven't heard my rights so I'm unaware if I'm under arrest
Just being held for questioning
Or let off on a technicality
I don't know because you won't tell me
Just held in this cell of your love making.
Shivering and shaking
Confused on how much more of my time you'll be taking
Months or years? A life sentence? A few more hours?
Making me wonder why I'm here feels like an abuse of power
