Loosen Your Leash
If I wanted to appease you,
And massage your ego.
Would you pat me on the back,
For that?
To then loosen your leash.
Allowing me to run freely...
Wherever I choose.
Confident I will return.
With the knowledge,
You have trained me well?
And I show signs I am mesmerized.
Totally captivated and under your spell.
Or will you demand my loyalty,
Until I've passed all tests?
In steps to learn...
What it is you deliver,
No other can treat my needs...
To better what you give.
Since it is your best.
Which insecurities,
Should I first address?
And how would you like them,
Applied?
Show me your schedule,
To highlight those times I can rest!
With assurances I can do this...
Without you constantly by my side!
