Broken Chains

by Momentary Relapse   May 1, 2006


Allow me to grow my wings
Allow me to fly away
Does the freedom bother you love?
Do you want me to remain a day?

Please I need to have my life back
I do not need your devotion's chains
You are your own master
Cut away your heart's eroding pains

Love is such a strong emotion
And ours will continue to burn
But I need to be on my own
Dependence on you I'll never learn

I cannot be chained to your whims
But strongly with you I will be
Do you fear being abandoned, love?
Does my thoughts force you from me?

Never a day has gone that I regret
Being with you soothes my mind
But I will not change even for you
Despite love, to you I will not bind

    My favorite stanzas were the first one and the last one, they're strong and well written. I also liked the message, I think it's very important to be independent.

    Oh wow great poem. Some big words in there. I love how its kind of like a mixed poem, like the 1st n 2nd stanza is about freedom kinda, n the 3rd stanza is about love. I don't know if its mean't to be that way, but its good.

    P.s. thanks for the comment you gave me it was greatly appreciated
