My Landlord Read Count : 64

Before our mutual agreement, 
 he was nice,
 he was cold as an ice. 
 
But after the agreement,
 I couldn't believe my eyes. 
In the blink of an eye, 
his voice was high.
 
He became a boss. 
It seemed I've made a loss.
 
I am a customer, I thought.
 He was a lecturer he taught . 
 
I tried to cope
 but am not a pope.
 I am a bachelor,
 he calls himself a conqueror.
 
 He gave to me double 
of the problems he gave to couples.
 I am single 
but I live with trouble. 
 
I asked why
 but no reply. 
I had hope but it faded
, I had courage but useless. 
 
Endurance and tolerance became my choice. 
 
Egotism and superiority were  his own choice.
 
My hope became a guest,
 my courage has no quest. 
 
Endurance became unendurable,
 tolerance become intolerable.
 
Then I have to move forward, 
since days are not going backwards.
 
Eventually, my rent expired.
 I took my leave and my belongings. 
 
I left the house and a note  
"You are my landlord not my lord".
