Free From His Leash
I don’t desire to attempt this again
not with you, we had our ups and downs
now its time to bow out and discover
someone else.
I crave for someone to fulfill
the barrenness left by so many-
men like you.
Someone to caress my essence
and set free the woman I mask inside.
All my life I have been searching for someone
that will love me and that person is not you.
Sorry to be so determined but time is not-
what it used to be you’ve given to me
three angelic keepsakes
and for that I will always be grateful to you.
So you need me back but I am not going to backtrack
and lapse to surviving in the gray not when I sampled
the illumination of deliverance on the tip of my tongue
and had exhilaration course through my veins.
Come home if you must but this home is one without trust-
its nothing but the sentiments of us.
I don’t care to drift down
this same passage repeatedly.
Today I am no longer linked
by words of love.
I am free to be me.
