your voice fades

your voice fades into circles
i catch your breath of lies
you won't let go
you have the wrong key my dear
i am not the girl of your own
this is not a love poem
but a breakaway
a sign for you to leave
the garden in our home is no longer alive
mostly harmless but down the river
is where i've left you
alone i stay
alone i stay
in liberation
my heart will sing
