Here I am again
at the fence which I fear
too high to jump over
Too low to climb
Every time I come to it
The same time every year
Emotions come flooding
The body can't keep up part time
When the mind works full time
And you seem as though
The fence is surrounding life
SUFFOCATING you
Have you commited such a crime
To cause this wall to be built
TO be the ultimate barricade
THe greatest of guilt that you knew
STOP running
START overcoming
Fears
of
Who you are & what you do
