Slaved Away
I thought I was the queen- 
 ruler of mineself, 
 
 
 
 none could have me: 
 for, I could only have my own person. 
   
 I kept away from people, 
     leaving them at the doorway- 
 
 
     of my heart; 
 sheltering myself from- 
 backstabbing words  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 and prying eyes. 
   
 
 
   I was fine, 
 isolated, 
     in my own perfect world; 
 happily derived of any 
 
 
    form of relationship. 
   
 Then like a bolt out of the blue, 
 he came:  
 
    the sovergein of my heart; 
 easily, he slid past my gaurds, 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
   and took the throne, 
 when I wasn't looking. 
   
 
 
 
     And now, 
 I'm bound: a slave, 
 
 
  to every whim of the king, 
 now, he owns the person, 
 
 
 
     I fought to keep to myself: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 me. 
   
 My world; 
 
    isn't mine anymore, 
 because... 
  I love him.
