Broken Child By Nosipho Zulu

I am a slave
A slave to your love
A slave to your manhood
your kiss, your touch
Bound by these chains, these chains
These chains that keep me coming back
that control me

You are my master
I am crying, begging and pleading
I take it all in
I am strong enough
You are my master
You know better
When your are right, I’m wrong
When I’m wrong, you are right

We fall into a routine
You push, you kick, you punch
I scream, I cry, I beg and plead
I take it all in
You are my master and I shall oblige
I feel myself slowly slipping away
Dying

You are my master
And I am no more
I am your slave
I am your slave no more
