Was it Ever Enough?

I loved you,
Was that ever enough?
I held you,
Letting go was tough.

I wanted to be independent
A shadow of my former self
I needed to feel the breeze
Beneath my open wings

I wanted you to release
Your fingers around my throat
To watch my spirit dance
With joy in the new day

But you only kept a hold
You attempted to clip
These my precious wings
So I would never leave

You're selfish, controlling
You suffocated me
So I flew from your grasp
And some how it's my fault

I needed you to support me
To let me leave your cage
Knowing only to you
Would I return once more

And now you cry
Anger in your eyes
Just because you couldn't
Let me fly

And now I reunite
With this my azure
I missed the zephyr
The freedom comforts me

So my next mate, remember
The thing you love the most
Release it, if your love is true
It'll always return,
I will always return
Just like I promise too
Return to you
