Lose Control

A Poem by Melanie Jane Boicourt Shanks

Lose Control

I want to lose control
and I give You the wheel.
And You can take my soul
To do with as You feel.
And I will pay my toll
If You finish the deal.
And You can take control
I give You the will.
**********
You�re the captain of my vessel
So sail me where You want to go.
You�re the strength behind my muscle;
The nourishment I need to grow
You have all the answers,
So show me what I need to know,
And be the captain of my vessel
And sail me where You want to go.
**********
I want to lose control
and I give You the wheel.
And You can take my soul
To do with as You feel.
And I will pay my toll
If You finish the deal.
And You can take control
I give You the will.
**********
You�re the pilot of my starship,
So fly me where I need to be.
And even through the hardship,
I know you�re right there with me.
You have all the reasons
So show me what I need to see,
And be the pilot of my starship
And fly me where I need to be.
**********
I want to lose control
and I give You the wheel.
And You can take my soul
To do with as You feel.
And I will pay my toll
If You finish the deal.
And You can take control
I give You the will.
**********
Everything I do and everything I see
It happens for the one who is higher than me.

M.J.S.

This almost reads like song lyrics. I don't know if you're musical, but if you are you should definitely think about doing something with this. I really enjoyed the light breezy quality it had. Great flow to it as well.
