set me free

I have not asked you for much, but I have simply needed a little from you. I have not sought diamonds and pearls. They have said the best things in life are free and yet I have not received the free part of you. I have given you the best that I had to give in the hopes of having just having a little from you.
Many a time I have tried to let you see the way things stand from my side but you are too involved in yourself to listen to me. I have sat in the silence of my tears because you hurt me so many times by your words. I just needed you to love me in return. I wanted to make this house a home so much I put my all on the table. Yes we furnished and put the chairs in there but Luther Vandross said it better, a chair is still a chair even if no one is sitting there but a house cannot be a home if there is no one there for me to hold on to and to say good morning to and good night to. Pease do not hold it against me that I have to go and start all over again. I may be tired now but I will build my home again without you and find my peace. I will build it to be my peace and my rest place.
I need the free things in life too
