Twisted sentiments and fallacy.

They wrap around my soul.

Like tendrils of vine confining me.

Twisting, increasingly tighter over time.

Feeding from me like they cling to me for life.

Why must your speak of love to cover your vicious slurs of lies.

I try so uneventfully to set myself free.

Trying not to surrender to you demands time after time.

You slowly draw life from me as i suffocate.

Your deception for which you call love.

Something i felt for a fleeting moment before you overtook my soul.

It merely binds my wings and steals the breath from me.

Holding me prisoner to your selfish whims.

When i fight to just be free from these unrelenting ties.

You smother me with lies masked behind unrequited love.

Set me free, so i can breathe again, bask in untainted air.

How i crave to once again soar freely.

I long to abscond from you.

Yet i struggle bound by your unrelenting ties and poison lies of love.

Bound so tightly my heart yearns for freedom.

Burdened with your relentless need to possess every inch of me.

It's toxicity stings, it's not how love should be.

I gaze in the mirror and catch only a glimpse of who i used to be, longingly looking back at me.

Waiting, always waiting for a single chance that i may set myself free.

This is my feelings and thoughts from being in a unhealthy relationship in my past.
I dedicate this to everyone that's stuck in a place in their life that makes them feel like a prisoner.
