I thought you had logged out
I thought I could be me now
One false move, and you jumped back on my shoulders
I’m carrying your weight now, like I did before
My life is spent in caring for your needy demands
Like the habit I cannot shake, you’re ever present
Stepping over my foot at every inch
Walking alone is painful now, like it was before
I don’t want happiness or sadness to overcome me
I don’t want equanimity to define my journey
I just want to be me again, free of you
The way you hold me down now, is tiresome
My years aren’t many that I can remember without you
I don’t have many left to count, with you there
How do I find me in the middle of this fog?
I thought I was free now, but you’ll never leave, I know
