Are you Ready?

by FireFly - Libra

Ok. Reset. You can choke on each word; find a new way of saying the same thing, just to cool your temperature.

Ok. Reset. Each on our own cliff, each step counts, each step closer to the edge. Sit a while, caught in the contempt of the jump.

Food you hate to eat-
The worst personalities each day-
Of each week-
The past catches up-
And hits like a train wreck-

The girl, boy, or life-
Leave you on the buoy-
Birds pooping all over you-	
Sharks smell blood leaking from your heart-
No friend in sight-
To get you out-

Just say goodbye-
To today-
Not just yet-
Feeling each hard moment-
By each learned regret-
Negativity shuts out the light-

Elation in your friends-
You wouldn’t find it-
The blackness holds you tightly-
A vampire, you drain your own blood-
A victim to your own crimes-

Just be-
Let go-
Find you-
Under rocks-
In quicksand-
Always a hand-
To pull you out-
Just open up-
And drop the weight-
It wasn’t meant to happen-
Life closes, when you shut it out-
But your part of its master plan-
Give in-
Give in-
Surrender but don’t give up-

Ok. Reset. Are you ready?
