Strongest Yet

August 14, 2015

A brand new strength

accompanied by a shift

filters through my veins

and courses the length of my body

 

Weakness had always been me

and I have always been this weakness

but a new power has become me

and I have become it

 

The exhaustion overwhelms

and I'm cold as I sit here

surrounded by warm sheets and sheets

my eyes burn

 

But I push and I fight

I'm tearing out of my cocoon and I'm

prepared to break out

in an extreme way

 

Look out difficulty

I'm coming to get you

I plan to dominate

and tear you to the bits that had been me

the peices I have always been

those shreds I am no more
