I have been forced
Into slavery of the mind
Ex lovers sold
The person I was
To the woman I became
Neither of whom
Have a proper name
Now the old one
Wants to be free
Yet it will never work
For she isn’t me
She never really was
Answering to my name
She just stood in place
While I ran in fear
But no more
For I am me
