That one night, I told you I was scared
"What if I was to fall??"
Yet, you whispered in my ear ever so softly
“But darling what if you were to fly?”
I trusted in your words, but my feet never left the ground.
You clipped my wings and hung them up on a frame.
Beautiful and trapped.
Decaying slowly for your eyes to love for an eternity
And you dare say its my fault for staying,
when I was held hostage from your selfishness.
You ******* tricked me.
But maybe it was my fault.
The problem with me was I depended on you to love me the way I wanted to love myself.
But by doing that I never was able to reach to my horizons & find what was needed.
I was only familiar to the grip of your arms holding my wings down.
