Suffocation

I dreamt of you last night I felt strangled in my sleep You loved me so fiercely A feeling I didn't know I ran from you Just to keep my sanity I realize each day the mistake I made It suffocates me to the point of pain You walked in the day I walked in the night I was the dark And you were the light I seek you again To atone for my sins I know I'm not worthy But live in the hope Please accept my apology So that I might feel again Stop this suffocation Help me remember how to breathe
