Bind my wrists to give me freedom.
Take away this
constant need for responsibility
and let me be out of control
under your guiding hand.
Give me the escape
of obeying your commands
without question.
I need this tamed moment,
this contained expression of ownership,
this leash
to hold back my irrational need
to do everything perfect the first time.
Make me submit
to the power of letting go.
Submission [poem]
