I am human after all Tempted each day I am foolishly blinded by love Sliver by sliver resolve fades away I am immobilized by agony Weight grows hard to bear Tip over so I can be free Off edge to fall somewhere Toppling head over heels in a haze Comparable to Jack and Jill Chain snapping as moment occurs Crashing at bottom of this hill I am the statue everyone sees Poised awaiting instruction Off-track I tumbled through the trees Cracked by calamitous destruction Start healing wounds all over skin Created from own poor decisions Gravity not willing to let me advance Rolling accumulated incisions Back and forth I wander Earth tilts beneath my feet Dizzily confused I can't figure out how To steady myself preventing defeat It's impossible getting where goals are Wobbly with each step I take Top of the mountain seems so far Luckily legs do not ache It seems this journey will not ever end The wind Ocean Temperature Ground Rattling bones that comprise my skeleton Rampant running around It's not fair punishment by any means Served my time in this location Already processed surrounding scenes Fists balled due to brain's frustration Downward I cast exhausted eyes Driven by instinct to carry on I am accepting of demise All hope is gone
If hope is what makes us human I must be something else
