Member-only story
Are You Aware
I leave to be free
You have been extremely foolish, my friend
Are you aware, you cannot chain the wind,
Nor keep the torrential rain locked in a cage
Tides can’t be controlled or the sun dimmed?
Are you aware, that I cannot be owned
By trying to restrain me, I need to take flight,
By holding onto me so tightly, smothering me
You have driven me away, fleeing in fright.
Are you aware, I would have happily stayed
Simply because I desired to be by your side,
We had a good thing going, just you and me
Feeling your will choking me, I cannot abide.
You leave me no choice, I leave to be free
I will not be held hostage, by your insecurities,
We will never know, where this love could lead
You tied my hands, a sign of your immaturity.
Thank you for reading.
