Let no man take your joy from you!

Paul Heber Collins

Let no man take your joy from you.
Who and what is this man
that would claim he has a hold over you?

I believed long
it was a man from without,
a man that could bind, tie,
twist your life to his own.

This man came of his own accord,
to do as he willed,
to call me to my knees,
so that he it was I obeyed.
