#stifle
"I never knew it was toxic, until I tasted freedom with love. I never knew what it was like to be loved, without being encaged. But now I can take my decisions, I can roam free. I can be loved and be my own person. I chose what I do today and forever.
It was love before, it is love now. But now he loves me into independence. I discover more about myself. I find myself healing.The stifling breath, and aching sobs in my chest are slowly fading. It was love before but the bad outweighed the good. Too weak and in love to leave. But I am not a possession, I am my own person."

You know
I've always heard
People saying and ranting
About going home
Home home home
I don't know why
My home is a place
A place where i never want to be
I hate it there
It's so suffocating
The minds there are ignorant
And and stifling
I hate it there
It's where my eyelids
Are pasted together
And where my lips
Are stapled together
I hate it there
It's where my thoughts
Are are vile
And my heart is
Just an *****
I hate it there
It's where there's always
A preach about god
But what god would
Allow stifle
Allow suffocation
Allow ignorance
It's a place that i hate
I hate
I hate

It’s encroaching
Stifling my breath
Like cold gates
At the mouth
That vicarious grip
Of distorted desires
Trapped inside
Playing hide & seek
Like a childhood friend
Or am I just having
A fever dream…
