I try not to make myself
A disappointment
On purpose
Better left to private reflection
And how I can get up, try again
If the world knocks the wind from me
I will pass off the loss of breath as a silence
Never let them see me bleed
Until my veins are flat and the lights are bright
As sunshine
But if there are issues,
I seek them head on,
Of my vulnerabilities
None are about you
