While the vines of your presence constrict my lungs and won't let me breathe I try to calm my poor beating heart and set myself free One more day One more week One more month Don't give up on trying Why won't you let me be? Even if you keep pulling me back in the same cold depths I am still trying to defy you You just keep on spinning that same web Why won't you let me go? Am I not human in your eyes?
A short poem about trying to set yourself free from someone who keeps pulling you in for attention and keeping you in emotional limbo, treating you as if you are not human.
