who said I needed to be possessed?
i never have imagined myself answering to someone else's command
living my life for another
is this what everyone yearns for?
why some toss and turn at night
love?
love is not the opportunity to say "you are mine"
"forever and always" "I would die without you"
*******
love is passion yes but not ignorance
love is about appreciation
not possession
I am not "yours" i am mine
you may be my partner for as long as i allow it
and no your physical health would not change if i choose to leave
do not lean on me
we can carry each other
do not try to stomp a forever out of me
you and i both know we don't have that much time
