Knot in the pit of my stomach why must you persists?
The tightness is confining and my eyes cannot resist the need to create release through tears held back by fears shouting out, "The people might see"
They might see that I am not as strong as I pretend to be
My legs are jittery
I am proned to running
I have had this itch like a twitch in my limbs for far too many years
But my will is stronger than it used to be so I stay longer than I was intending
Rendering the deepening of roots of this tree that are preventing me from retreating
Creating a boundary that feels more homely and yet I am all the more lonely
Conforming to this hurting its unearthing this ugly while I set in the corner of my mind struggling shaking and quaking raking and staking the land of my soul trying to claim it as my own with this name that is borrowed and this sight that is narrowed and a prophesy that's furrowed into my future dreams it seems they are transforming and I am hoping this knot it'll cease so that life can persists a little more free
