Smothering My Breathe Away

He smothers my life
With his dominate control
I utter the words
I can't breathe 
As my insides sigh with discuss 
And lots of frustration
As he smothers me even more
Until my heart begins to murmur
And my body gasp for air
Trying to relieve itself 
From the turmoil of his
Powerful grip and constant control
Over my life as he sucks the
Breathe from my body until
I finally break free
I could hear a voice whisper
RUN!
