When, I relinquished myself, <br />I gave up, all my own soul. <br />I sank deeply, into your-self, <br />Ice-frozen, I couldn't escape. <br />How could I move on or cajole <br />Every part, you'd taken control. <br /> <br />When, I relinquished myself, <br />There was a drum-beat loud, <br />It was my heart, losing itself. <br />Self-control, a bird, disavowed. <br />A wrecking-ball, fallen from a cloud <br />With all happiness disallowed.<br /><br />Mark Heathcote<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-d-taken-control/
