You've lost me!
And I've conceded.
My efforts to free you,
Were without your consent!
I now recognize...
That key I tossed to you,
To release you from your shackles...
In a bondage you find sweet.
Did not have the approval,
Of those who keep you suppressed!
I confess...
I did not gain their authorization!
You've lost me,
In comprehending your need
To remain enslaved!
But I do acknowledge the fact,
You are not aware of that!
And your addiction is best lived,
Oppressed!
And I find that no contest,
To challenge.
You win with my condolences.
