Losing Control
I’m almost losing control
Almost... if only I could allow it
So much thoughts lost and untold
So much strength derive from once so weak
And I want to be weak... if only I could
Why have I forgotten I can grow stronger?
Is it not strange... how we behave like we should?
Taught to accept no less unless a perfected order
I am tired of survival
Because I know it’s something so made up to do
I never felt what we need is essential
Because it’s so easily replaceable with future inventions for you
And I think I almost got it... the root
The source of all my problems from being in control
It is something never to understand but understood
That never life for the surviving life to unfold
Almost... because there is no need to allow it
A willful moment losing that unrealized control
Am I to understand what thoughts will not speak?
Perhaps of words be truthful if left untold
