Your Wildness

Suffocated me...

Your craziness excited me
Your wildness attracted me
Every day was an adventure

You lived as if today were the last
Impulsive and spontaneous
An insatiable hunger for life

Then your presence became 
An overbearing shadow
Looming over me

You suffocated me
You smothered me
I couldn’t breathe

You wanted all of me
Too much from me
You tried to swallow me

I felt surrounded by you
Demanded by your need
An ominous threat

I know it broke you
But I was fading away
Into nothingness

I had to flee your shackles
Break the bond
Of possession, you forged

Your relentless pursuit
Frightened me 
Submission was no option

I refused to be your prey
Hunted for pleasure
Restrained by threats

I disappeared from your life
Left you reeling in shock
Freedom was all I desired

Peace returned to my life
The chains broken
Silence restored
