Something goes wrong
I stare you in the face
You don't like to go away
Though you often hide
Shackles and freedom
Together, and tense
My muscles become when
I let you loose
Feel the burn, smile
And laugh at the pain
That you bring, then
Regret it later...
Helplessness, my enemy
In haste I often choose
You to help, but then
I often lose myself.
Am I worth keeping,
A line of losses?
Though when bowing my head
I never give in.
Should I let you
Into me further?
Perhaps my losses
Were for my weakness...
Is it a triumph
To put you away,
Or yet again
More foolery?
