Enslaved

Panic consumes me formed long ago from abandonment by those with undying love infinity never existed shackled is my heart with gut wrenching emotion never wanting such fear nor understanding why wisdom can be a curse a soul that begs to be held yet the mind says beware blood stained echoes call from distant nightmares dreams can be tormenting chained by remorse religion's deepest shame baptised unto guilt bearing christian names why have thou forsaken me to be loved is to know sorrow a leprechaun's wish for rain but the gold is always lost when the clouds reappear poverty is welcomed.........
