I run the roads ‘tween beast and god.
The roads that many ‘fore have trod.
I am a trial, I am an error,
I bring hope and I give terror.
I’m well aware of the potential.
I’ve overcome some consequentials.
I look out, from this creation,
The riddle of my situation.
When the past presents regret,
It makes today feel like a debt.
A debt not plain but in the holes,
From my many unpaid tolls.
And today my pain is still.
It doesn’t move, it doesn’t will.
But it is there, this I know.
While I reap, it cooks the sow.
I look ahead, and I feel hope.
It could be real, it could be cope.
I see this life as but a death.
There is an end in every breath.
As I run the deaths come fast.
Each one I have, I soon surpass.
I dare not think this life’s a curse.
Because it all could be far worse.
The frightening features of my soul.
Contains a key to be made whole.
I seek things that wake the fear.
I seek them and I keep them near.
I want the fear to get routine.
And be just fine here in between.
And let it forge my self control.
And maybe fill a couple holes.
