In this moment, I claim my space
Recognizing the obstruction within
Unplanned, but persistent
My reflection meets a forceful collision
A revolt against witnessing agony
Agony, relentless agony
Ascending to a realm of discomfort
Transforming hurt into loathing
A dreadful anticipation
Resurfacing of distorted emotions
Yet, the inner ache wanes
An escalation beyond reason
Long overdue, this descent
Through the passage of time, I've lingered
But no longer can I mourn
As something stirs within
I defy the label imposed
You've seized it all and now,
I withhold further surrender
A query arises
Shall I discard it all?
Reclaim what rightfully belongs to me
Thus, I proceed deliberately
Tracing the edge with precision
Each incision nearing the vein
Vein, coursing with significance
This progression, relentless
Hatred birthed from affliction
Anxious anticipation
Revisiting turbulent sentiments
Yet, the internal torment diminishes
This threshold, breached
The wait, protracted
No longer can I lament
As an awakening unfolds within
I reject the false depiction
You've stripped away everything
And now, I reserve my remaining offering
Here I stand, unwavering
Asserting my permanence
Descend upon me
For I am resolute
I am resolute
I am resolute
I am resolute
A crumbling commences
A disintegration, inevitable
A disintegration, imminent
A disintegration, approaching
A disintegration, imminent
Breaking it down, dismantling
Breaking it down, dismantling
Breaking it down, dismantling
Breaking it down, dismantling
This progression, relentless
Hatred birthed from affliction
Anxious anticipation
Revisiting turbulent sentiments
Yet, the internal torment diminishes
This threshold, breached
The wait, protracted
No longer can I lament
As an awakening unfolds within
I reject the false depiction
You've stripped away everything
And now, I reserve my remaining offering
Offering, offering, offering, offering.
