The Protagonist Is I

You are the hero, The main character, The one trying to hold the story together in your shaking hands, Our lives are just like books, Filled with numerous chapters, Could be disasters, You are the story, You are my story, I am the protagonist, Yet also the antagonist, A blessing and a curse dropped into your lap, I know that you will overcome your enemies in the end, I bite my tongue even though its hurting, I keep your secrets till my chest is burning, That's usually a goodish enough storyline that melts the audience, But people like myself who do not melt sees the true sadness in the lack of melting, We do not melt because we have been melted ao much that we went for an operation and we came out transformed, We are now metal, And I'm sorry to disappoint that antagonist/antagonist who becomes a protagonist, But the best I would ever be able to do to you is to warm your heart.
