Weakness is a nuisance that travels alongside everyone, similar to the skin on their very backs- It holds you down when you need to fly and keeps you there in that dark place that you have tried so hard to escape from. It turns those always-glimmering eyes Into lumps of coal sunken in your face; It rearranges that toothy grin into a less than impressive frumpy slant plastered below your nose. Oh, don't you see? It turns your gleaming aura into a dark, black vortex of emptiness. Weakness is a nuisance that consumes you- weakness is you.

Weakness
Weakness is a nuisance that travels alongside everyone, similar to the skin on their very backs- It holds you down when you need to fly and keeps you there in that dark place that you have tried so hard to escape from. It turns those always-glimmering eyes Into lumps of coal sunken in your face; It rearranges that toothy grin into a less than impressive frumpy slant plastered below your nose. Oh, don't you see? It turns your gleaming aura into a dark, black vortex of emptiness. Weakness is a nuisance that consumes you- weakness is you.
