I fight
This time, I fight.
I get dragged down all the time,
I keep quiet and hear my body crash
against the ground on which upon
I was meant to stand.
I allow myself to be penetrable,
I allow myself to be free
and I let the enemy know that
my guard is down.
And he starts attacking,
he forgets that we made a pact
to stand by each other.
That even though he was a devil,
to me he would become an angel.
But I was an opportunity to him,
ready for exploitation.
I was strong but in his arms,
I became soft.
I opened myself up
and allowed him to see all my sides.
Even devils sometimes have good intentions,
I thought so highly of this particular one,
but I forgot that what devils do best
is to drag people to hell.
The fire is unbearable,
every burn I get,
I'm reminded of my past
and his empty promises.
But there's a difference this time,
there's no love to tame me.
This time I stand up and fight!
