The curse and bliss
Possessive parent is a curse;
I was pampered.
Possessive spouse is a curse;
I was shackled.
Possessive child is bliss;
I am secure.

The bliss and the curse
A possessive spouse is bliss.
You are in her care. A curse too;
You are a suspect to her.

Possessive
Being possessive is not a clever thing
as you can so easily lose
what you are possessive about.
Everything needs a little freedom in their lives
to sit by themselves and think.
If you deprive them of that,
you are driving a wedge between you both.
Not everyone is born the same,
and if you try to get them to do
only what you want them to do.
You might just find one day that
they are walking away from you.
You have to let people live
without keeping an eye on them all the time.
You have to trust them to be true to you.
The least you trust the more likely they are
to turn their back on you forever.

Possessiveness
A possessive wife is a fortune.
It gives all the comforts.
But you lose freedom.
Your lust is imprisoned.
Comforts give pleasure.
Freedom gives happiness.
Freedom is supreme.
A possessive wife
Is suited to a meak husband
Otherwise it is a hell.

Live It As It Exists
More than a few are possessive,
Of a privacy they protect...
That, with time, gets for others,
Less accessible...
With no regrets.
Trust is a factor,
And the key to one's peace.
'Some' one knows do not honor this.
And eventually are discovered,
To be the core of disharmony...
Within a friendship that is thought to be,
Closer than it is in reality!
More than a few are possessive,
Of a privacy they protect.
And trust is a factor,
One wishes to keep unsuspected.
And when respect is an issue,
Anyone has to raise?
With those trusted in an inner circle,
That had not before been appraised?
Something about the need for this...
Should not be argued but dealt with quick!
More than a few are possessive,
Of a privacy they protect.
And trust is a factor,
One wishes to keep unsuspected.
With a peace of mind,
One should not have to define...
But live it as it exists.
There is no need for a quarrel,
To begin over it!
One should have what one deserves.
And to live it as it exists.

Theists to know
Woman as a mother
Is the most sacrificing,
The most possessive
And the most biased one.
But for her, human life
Could not sustain.
Man as a lover
Is the most sacrificing,
The most possessive
And the most biased one.
But for him, woman’s life
Would not prosper.
Theists must know about these.

A Slave Wants To Be So
A slave is a slave as he is in love.
As slave he’s assured that he is secure.
His master can be a possessive wife,
A caring mother or a beloved child.

Love slaves you
The one who loves you gives you
Freedom cut to that extent.
The one who is possessive
Of you will make you slave.

IF Sometime
If sometimes you feel, that I am being weird,
Hold me close, I might be needing your hug
If sometimes you feel that I am being too argumentative
Let me win, I might be disturbed
If sometimes you feel, that I don’t obey u
Convince me like a child, perhaps I might want you to pamper me
If sometimes you feel, that I am talking a lot
Listen to me, I might have spent a lonely day
If sometimes you feel, that I am not on speaking terms with you
Give me time to accept the new decision you might have made.
If sometimes you feel that I am losing interest in you
Tell me how much you love me, I might be wanting to hear it.
If sometimes you feel that I am getting too possessive about you,
Don’t get irritated, it might just mean that I love you, and cant stay without you.
And if sometimes you feel, that I have grown old and irritating
Don’t leave me, don’t curse me, perhaps I might need you and your love the most.

The truth suffers
He is mean and still superior to me
As I am greedy that he is not.
He is possessive and still superior,
As I am covetous that he is not.
He visits prostitutes and still superior,
As I have an eye for cuckolds.
But I am held higher than him.

Fairness to genders
Which woman has not got a child
That has not fled with its spouse?
It is the curse for the woman.
Which man has not got a love
That has not slipped with her husband?
It is the curse of the man.
God is fair in distribution
Of woes, though not bliss to genders.

A free bird
I don’t want a man as is possessive,
Rich or mad in love with me though he is..
I don’t want to be a captive of him.
Be he mine who does not interfere.

They lost their way
A beggar is nearer to God
than a Monk, ego-less.
A bonded one is nearer to God
than a master, being not possessive..
A child is nearer to God
than an erudite, unprejudiced.
The so called ones lost their way to God.

Innocence
Innocence is a God given gift to every child,
as such it walks hand in hand with ignorance.
Until it is destroyed by the corrupt and possessive
who know that innocence has no resistance.

My ballets belong to my dancers and to the public. They can do with them what they will... I'm not an abusive father, or possessive. Anyway, I have no sense of property.

Tell Me
It is good to ask “tell me”
But you have been allowed free
Don’t ask often to lady
They are eager but moody
It is good to be possessive
But not be so obsessive
You show all your feeling
When she is for you and willing
It hurts a woman when asked repeatedly
Some relations are just accepted happily
It is sacred and must remain so
Undue haste and pleas must go
You make it more narrative
Hence it becomes less subjective
You become possessive
And try to be assertive
This creates some tension
It raises lots of questions
When woman in question is ready
You must be careful and remain steady
Some of the paths are to be guided smoothly
Remain at arms length but truthfully
It adds sweetness in relation
Every time good feeling with lots of excitation
Listen to what she says or murmurs?
Try to be attentive and peacefully hear
Some new message may be for you
She may find you real and very true
Such is delicate thread of relation
It has enough of joy in revelation
One must be really assertive when required
Trust her completely without being inquired

For beware this

afflicting mind diseased

were the mark of evil

Never be possessive. If a female friend lets on that she is going out with another man, be kind and understanding. If she says she would like to go out with the Dallas Cowboys, including the coaching staff, the same rule applies.

Rough sailing
Your wife clings to your salary
Rather than to you.
You cling to her fidelity
Rather than to her beauty.
One is materialistic;
The other is possessive.
Which boat doesn’t meet rough sailing? .
