I've finally caught up to the present
I just hope that my heart and mind can run this fast
But every time I doubt their strength they scorn my very flesh
Paying me back double for any pain that I have already received
As safe as I thought it was here back then
It's obvious that the danger has already spread
Holding me hostage day and night, wishing my time would finally come
But there's more to this than books and screens or fear that haunts me while I wait
There are a handful of reasons on the outside
They link me to deep anchors that hold me still
It can't be fought; it won't be beaten
There's just a hope for a compromise that may never be fulfilled

there could be fullfillment: when you may not be looking
it bites real hard on the face and creeps into your system and you realize it was all ok from the start

This is such a great write. I loved how you started this, "I've finally caught up to the present I just hope that my heart and mind can run this fast". This is such an orginal line. Well done, this is great.
