obsession

your love was my obsession
but mine was yours much more

you didn't let me live my life
nor be whom i longed to be

my life was your obsession
and you couldn't set me free
you never understood i wasn't a bird
i had the world to see
but that's how you had me
in your cage made of jealousy

alone and distraught
i was confused by your rage
thinking it was fault

until i came to the realization
the your love was sick and binding
and that i couldn't save your soul
that only you could help yourself
and that i wouldn't take your fall

i know now it was never my fault
your love was not for me
i needed so much more
i needed to be free
