Available

With your frontal attack
I retreated to silence
which resounds..in every heaven

I chewed my own foot pretty good
before it achieved ..my mouth

With this mighty struggle came release.
I have learned to live. 

I am ready to hold myself near
your outline...I am ready
to battle only when necessary.
