Prisoner

I fell like a prisoner
Trapped in this relationship
You telling me what to do
Like a parent
I can't get away
Without breaking someone's heart
Maybe not yours or mine
Someone more important
I can't leave without breaking a promise
That I made to myself and to you and to God
And to the one whose heart would be broken
My hands are tied and my feet, bolted to the ground
I'm stuck here forever unless I find a better way out
