Captivity

Struggled to be free
Apart from the pain and misery
Thought love was the answer,
Thought you were the key...
Together as One
Once separate lives now intertwined
Gave of my heart and soul
My love, yours until the end of time...
I am looking for love
I am looking for happiness
I am looking for what once was
I am looking for you...
Will I be free?
Please let go, I need to breathe,
Your warmth is stifling
Still, held am I in your captivity.
