Imprisoned

I want to let you go, but how?
A bird can't fly without wings.
I need to let you go, but when?
Yesterday is too late
Tommorow is too soon
Maybe I could break from this cocoon-
evolve into a butterfly
or perhaps I am destined to remain
a scared little girl, sucked into your vortex
I know you're not good for me, but who cares
being held by you is so nice, so warm, so kind
like coming home
and I've been a stray
--far too long
