-Secure Torment-
I yearn for all that I may not have,
for I am me and that’s all I am.
I question the future with cautious, painstaking eyes.
Having seen what tortures hold when expectations dye.
A constant battle between what should be done-
and what the day’s time allows.
Unwilling to break the cycle I've formed;
I cower to simplicity and fold to conform.
To take on the world- a once burning yet now abandoned desire,
I’m left in the bleak shadows of ash set forth by said fire.
Complexity causing me to stay put,
locked in this casket of lava and soot.
I stay here in wallow in a forest now dead of option,
secure in my torment.
For I yearn for all that I may not have,
as I am me and that’s all that I am.
