Rise.
When choice is a lie,
And duty shuts its eyes
To all you've been.
Stand--
Back where you began,
Push hard against the hands
That bind you,
Remind you
Of the failures of your now.
Reach
Within your murky deep,
Reject the secrets that still keep
You
Steal you
Seal you
Hiding in a sleep,
Anesthetized.
Paralyzed.
Compromising all your dreams.
Shout,
Face
Embrace
Chase the doubt
Scream it out,
Confront dusk and dawn and all
Who come to call for your demise.
And rise.
