Control

I gave away
My right to choose

It seemed
So simple then

Another held my
Life in their hands

My mind was empty
Others directed my thoughts

I paid the price
For my stupidity

The state has complete
Control over me

    Your poem ‘Control’ brings thoughts to me of how it was so long ago and how there often is and can be so much control over our lives from others.
