"Enslaved" By Rachael Williamson


Once did I love you

Moved to part with my sense of self

Living your vision and worshipping the very ground you trod

For my god on earth, you were


How was I such a fool?

Was I your piece as you were mine?

Was I your breath as you were mine

As my pulsating heart leapt for you?

Or was I out of my own mind


Living a lie in my fool’s paradise?

In the naivety of my past

Do I now tuck into bits,

my sweet innocence

I don’t drink, smoke or flirt around…


I do worse

I sniff and lick

Crack after crack until I crack

A beautiful slithering weapon have I become

For you created

One who thirsts for crack and blood


Finely crafted to find solace in oblivion

Now a home, have I been built

Called it rehab

To have you understand me


As you see and term me crazy

Soon would I leave this home

With hope renewed to find me

And grace revived to find us

For you are mine as I am yours
