Words Can't Save You

~~ The truth was out there, but pitiful you forgot to read the fine print It seems you misread all the signals, but here is a slight hint, just in case you are wondering . . what you mean to me Your heart is mischievous and cruel, I’ve had enough of it You break every rule and - you use fancy words as your safety net, but some words I can’t forget I am done with you, we are through!! You keep me close to the earth holding my hands together A prisoner to my own worth, tied to the darkness of never I am suffocating underneath your shirt Your heart is mischievous and cruel, I’ve had enough of it You break every rule and - you use fancy words as your safety net, but some words I can’t forget I am done with you, we are through!! DON"T come back to me because now, I am flying free ~~~~

Good for you, you are now flying free- a controlled relationship from either side just does not work and we sometime misinterpret it as caring but one day wake up and realise - hey you, no more of this, be gone! A truly well penned write Brandy, Hugs, Jennifer

Thank you Jennifer. No one belongs in such a relationship. Being held too tightly, will cause the heart to ache- until it finally breaks. Your kind words are greatly appreciated. My best to you. Hugs, Brandy

Can I have one more chance? All kidding aside, it’s good to assert your autonomy. It’s best to free yourself from an oppressive relationship.

A relationship like that is doomed to fail. No one can endure being: "A prisoner to my own worth, tied to the darkness of never". You speak to many with this lyric, Brandy. Nicely done.

I am sure many can relate to these words. No one should EVER feel like a prisoner while in love. Not in this sense. Thank you Vijay!! You and your thoughts are appreciated. ~ Brandy

Love is a two way street, both parties must be free to make their own choices. And if love is true they always choose each other. A wonderful scribble from your heart my sweet friend. All my best. Hugs, John
