Please don’t ask me for more
Stretching my heart along the razor wire
Spun by your difficult choices
And frustrated desires
For this situation you are in
Was never going to be part of
My wildest imagining
And there is a ransom to be paid
To make the promises you made
Come true
Every time we talk
My heart is stretched so tight
As perspiration falls from me
I am getting so tired of it all
You say you are trapped in war
Well isn’t it what you signed up for?
And when you talk of taking your own life
It feels as though a knife
Is lancing my tender flesh
And I told you now that categorically
I want to live in light
So don’t you dare try to take me down
Into the darkness again
It really isn’t fair
To lay this on me
For you offered love
But you are not free
To be with
Or fully express it to me
Be careful. Don’t let him put anymore pressure on you. That’s not love. He made that choice. Xx
