I Set Myself Free

As love came knocking at my door,
I opened my heart and looked deep inside.
There I found an unfamiliar face,
for true love had never beckoned me before.

Awkwardly I tried to run from this love,
for I knew not what was in store.
Feeling like a castaway lost out at sea
as I sailed away to what may or may not be.

Again loves triangle is leaving me
with feeling of not being so free.
For your hold on me tightened around my neck,
like a noose before I was to be hanged.

Why now must love feel this way,
stifling and taking the breath from my body.
I liked feeling carefree and swept away,
wrong or right I set myself free.
