i am

no longer

loved

i am

no

me

or

am i no longer

weak?

am i no longer

meek?

no longer

lost?

no longer

drained?

shamed?

no longer

blamed?

no longer

enflamed?

permanently

tamed?

am i

no longer

me?

or

am i

no longer

the me

to

me.

no.

i am only

me

the me

i think

now, let me be

me
