My Love for You Is Not a Prison

Hmmm, Hmmm,
Real talk, let's Talk about us, 
let’s lay it all bare,  
When we started, it was magic in the air,  
Connected by dreams, ideas that soared,  
Navigating life together, hearts explored.  

But listen, love, it’s not a chain,  
Not a prison to hold you, not a place of pain,  
I believed in us, in the truth we shared,  
But dishonesty creeps in, and suddenly, I’m scared.  

Self-control falters, trust starts to break,  
Cheating whispers danger, my heart starts to ache,  
The perspective shifts, and my guard goes up,  
What was once love, now feels like a cup—  

Overflowing with hurt, with shadows of doubt,  
You tried to destroy what I cared about,  
My world, my dreams, my happiness too,  
All because you can’t find a way to be true.  

I don’t want you close if trust has to flee,  
Love can’t thrive in a heart full of deceit,  
We once built a fortress, now it's crumbling down,  
And the crown of my heart feels heavy, like a frown.  

So here’s my truth, as clear as the sky,  
My love is a choice, not a reason to cry,  
I’m not bound to your chaos, your need to control,  
I’ll walk away free, reclaiming my soul.  

You see, love shouldn’t be a weight on your chest,  
It should lift you up, bring out your best,  
So if you can’t create your own light,  
Then I won’t stay in the dark, I’ll take flight.  

My love for you is not a prison cell,  
It’s a garden of freedom where both can dwell,  
But if you choose to sow seeds of despair,  
Know that I’ll blossom in the fresh open air.
