I feel it
It is trying to lure me in
Singing its melody
Like charming a snake
Wrapping me in a warm coddle
Promising to protect
Never to neglect
Except.
.
Washing aside egotistical pride
Burrowing
Nestling
Within
Refusing a grin
Dare I let depression
Win?
?
It’s an unfair battle
I become reliant
Forget defiant
It’s familiarity encompasses
My being
A scab repeatedly opened
Never quite to heal
Do I give in
And kneel?
.
.
The persistence penetrates
Wearing down the thin
Weak barrier
Forever inferior.
Taking on this Giant
The one not to be tamed
Bowing out
No longer can I refrain.
