I wish there was an easier way,
Than to go on not actually living in the day,
I try so hard to say bye
But with the sound of your voice and and the look of your
eye;
You draw me back into your false sense of security
and tell me there is no where to turn for pity.
So I just stay and live my life in fear
But I am strong, I never shed a tear
After you have me locked away in your dungeon,
I bet you never thought I would have the strenght to carry on.
You say that you are always there
but truthfully, your presence, when I need it, is scarce
You get your mood swings and you get mad
and the only way you can take them out is to make me feel bad
You ask me for advice when you need it
but if I ever need advice, you act as if it is inadequate.
I am begging you to let me be
because my love for you doesn't set me free.
I thought you were my soul mate,
but your not, this I found out too late.
I try to shelter myself when people ask,
So I throw up my mask.
I try so hard to make you see;
to make you love me.
I use to think you didn't love me because because love is blind,
but then I realized that I am just wasting time.
Please, I am down on my knees
my soul is tired of wearing this ball and chain; please have mercy on me!
Reason for writing:
The reason I wrote this is because I feel so held back by my love for this guy that just won't love me too!
