Savvy

This poem was written for a project in my grade 12 Writer's Craft class. It is basically my feelings towards one person who has had a significant impact on my life, both in a positive and, moreso, negative way.

There comes a time when the student surpasses the teacher
But with me there is never a time for letting go.
The handcuffs around your wrists ensure that you'll be mine forever.
I cover your mouth with duct tape and blindfold you
So you'll never see the light of day again.
You are all my babies, my puppets, my creations.
I have the power to mould your minds into miniature versions of myself.
You are all whipped,
Standing in an orderly line dressed only in white.
Then there's you.
Alone
but not by yourself.
Dressed in black but wearing white.
How long is it until I lose you?
Nothing I do will hold you down,
It is impossible.
I have no choice but to step forward and allow you to untie me.
I am free but I watch you leave.
I am free but I have no choice but to remain here.
The student has surpassed the teacher.
