Can I?
Something within beats madly,
angrily forcing thoughts to the surface.
Feelings felt are dealt easier
than a body succumb to them.
Emotions over-ride the system
eagerly wanting to be relieved;
the only remedy is becoming known,
breaking free, regardless of sacrifices.
Overwhelmed is all in one.
One of the deadliest emotions,
the seven deadly sins warped
creating such a destructive feeling.
Truth comes similar to a drunk;
slurred out between nonsense,
though, the message is still received.
Breathe and speak,
communicate, even through fear,
the only true contender holding a man back.
Purpose is ability
ability is courage
courage is sacrifice
sacrifice is fear
fear is overwhelming.
