Tempted To Be Owned Poem by Lubna Hazeem

Alarming shivers crawl beneath my skin
As i climb the steps you're forming in
Im staring down your fears and doubts
Im falling down and fading out

This is the hole
Inside your soul
This is the place where
I was tempted to be owned
Puzzles and riddles
Lines with ripples
Every chance that i took
Twisted me like a hook
Now i feel like being tamed
Only refined by your blames
Oh, i feel like being named
You and I the same
Oh, the same after all

Love drowned me in your ruins
Love drowned me in oblivions
I couldn't sustain my previous state
Now i remember nothing of those days
Because now I lie on your floor
Now im more scarred than before
Nothing really matters anymore
With nothing to declare as mine
And nothing to share but lies
Oh, this is a debilitated life
With debilitated eyes, oh....
