On Strike

Folder: 
Lord Owens

The unknown teases me

Scratching at my brain

Planting ideas and doubts

Sprouting fear, worries, hope

The need to call him tugs but

Last numbers are the hardest to push

My weakness for him drains me

He doesn't need to know how much I crave his presence

I wonder and worry without reassurance

If he ever cared does he still

After all this time without my influence

Telling him he is sexy

Feeding his ever hungry ego

I was there to render a service

I am an employee

On strike

Black signs with red letters  

"Give me more of your heart

or give me back mine"

I stand firm for the moment

But once the strike is over

Everything will be back

The way it was

Holli, this poem just can't be true...I mean...geez...much with the crying. The line ""Give me more of your heart
or give me back mine"
just totally ripped out my heart. It reminds me of my feelings for the Rich-age.
