Like a lioness
Trapped in a cage
Please tame
Her wild ways.
Strong with teeth
Sharp and biting
She speaks with words
Not so inviting
Tearing through and through
The humble Master
Saying words of love
To calm disaster
He cries when she's whipped
Into submission
As she is breaking
His heart is broken.
She hardly sees
Past blinded eyes
Her own frailty
Is its own sunrise.
He clearly sees
Past snarling lips
She scrapes at wounds
He's tried to kiss
Her rage is
Unjustified
His sacrifice was
for her life.
The cat is meek
She's been declawed
He has mercy
On her flaws.
