I can feel myself, I’ve grown beyond our love now.
I’m taller by far than I used to be
the world and all its fears no longer scares me
and I can feel myself running free
I’m no longer bound by love to be a leaner
I make my way by knowing need’s a bore
she wishes after what she’d like to have now
but my need is gone and she can’t hold me anymore
with patient hours I try to reconcile
the pain her need is causing more and more
I say I’d like to see her if it feels good
but her pain is driving her harder than before
then I think I don’t need to really see her
when all she wants is to have me as before
and our hours are filled with such painful struggle
that I wonder what I need the hassle for
I’m free and she can’t seem to understand it
I love her still but now its something more
she like to own me outright but she cannot
my love is mine to give, so unlike before…
