Change tonight,
To ensure safe flight;
Safe movement from one phase,
Safe travel to the next place.
My mind morphs often,
A single reason remains unpinned.
Whether it's to survive more nights,
Or the worst of fights.
I change to survive,
To essentially revive,
Myself, to train
The way my mind handles pain.
I change, it's a sad fact,
But we're all born upon this pact;
That we'll be forced to change,
In little ways to keep survival in range.
I weep for the boy who is dead,
Now, all of this unknown from his head,
Wow, if I only I could envision,
A life without this derision.
The boy who lacked it is
Gone from the earth;
And this shell was
Birthed.
To replace something that was pure,
Because the boy could take no more.
