Melded personality unrecognisable
from the person that I was
it seemed only moments when
deciphering me wasn’t possible
chained, your shackles left no room
for movement ~ for me to be myself
without a smile I bid hello to mornings
blew goodnight kisses to the moon
with loss in my eyes
how did I let this happen
as if I was invisible
no thoughts, no rhyme or reason
allowing my identity to vanish
but I’m here, trapped, exploring
ways to escape without a broken heart
ungluing myself from your control
my existence does not need your breath
to smile once more at the moon and sun
to take the me from us
