You chain me emotionally
and make me live my life your way
You clip my wings
and expect me to soar away
You make me dependent on you
and then suddenly leave me in the mid-way
Is this fair on your part?
Am I the puppet in your play?
You put boundaries around me
and ask me to behave like a free spirit
Sometimes, I wonder is this really my life
Am I really living in it?

Nice one! Being independent is such a bliss!!:)
This is the problem...one person gives himself/herself to the other person completely...they loose their originality...!!!
It's a very emotional sentiment, the tying up, the bondage.
So true! Some people like to captivate the person they love...and when the other person gets emotionally dependent on them...they ditch...heartless on their part, but the pain is only known to the person who suffers, being weak and wounded..
We all go through these sort of phases...well written
Beautiful and expressive..I can relate to this :)
love is vengeance... smothers and soothe ..makes you bondage ... but a willing one ... so much that the absence of captivity is unbearable.. its a strange feeling ..
its love which has its norms to keep falling in it..
as usual you express love and its aspects like wizard.. and its always a pleasure reading you Valli !!
A strong poem ... thought provoking ... loved !!!
Nice and Simple... Aptly conveyed...
Somehow we human beings - the social animals cant live independently...but living independently is a bliss!!!
its like pretending that all is good..
where as nothing is actually working underneath..
beautifully written Valli..
simple...and honest :)
this is quite a expression... short and expressive
Nice! Fly high so no one can clip your wings.
Simple, Honest yet Strong!
emotional
உயிரோவியக் கவிதைத் தந்தாய்
உணர்வால் கட்டிப்போட்டாய்
உள்ளத்தால் உன்னை தொடரச் செய்தாய்
simply loved it. it is one of the few things that happens with some people that really hurts them, curbs their freedom and greatness! beautifully expressed anguish.
Now I'm all sad :(
I can feel the pain in your words. Beautiful poem, btw, what's the meaning of wouded?
Loved this. short yet impactful ..

@Saru Made a typo. It is wounded. Thanks for asking :) Corrected it :) and thanks for the read too :)
Very realistic. Nice one Valli :)
So easy to relate. We often start to live the way someone else wants us to, and then we are taken for granted. Well written :)
Very beautiful post Valli as always , so touching ,so emotional, just lovely :)
reminded me of a news I read in the papers a few days ago.....a father chaining his 35 yr old daughter for the last 5 yrs!!!
these lines really melted my heart...
This is what we call LOVE!
Well expressed!
Very strong feelings, yet written simply - loved it.
Heart touching poem
