Dear Ex

Take my hand.. Walk with me..
In your memory lane..
To the day that we met..
To the beginning and to the end.. 
Days went by and months past by..
The affection and the love..
I had for you just died..
Things never worked as planed.. 
Yet you never understand... 
I knew we were not meant to be..
I hated the feeling of being traped...
Every second I wanted to be free..
Its my fault I know its me..
Beacuse I love my freedom.. 
And just being me.. 
I know you loved me but.. 
I always felt I was not free.. 
Not free enough to be me.. 
I never wanted to be traped.. 
I always wanted to be me.. 
My freedom... Myself... 
Always matters to me.. 
If you ever understood me.. 
I would have never ask you to leave.. 
When you came back after months.... 
Thats the reason i never wanted you back... 
Beacuse i know.. I will be traped.. 
And this time i take you back.. 
I know i will have to live.. 
A prisoners i never want to be.. 
Everyone loves to be loved.. 
Yet its important I say it now.. 
I am sorry for everything.. But.. 
I dont want to loose myself my freedom 
for Love to be loved!!
