My Body Is a Scary Place

Poem
2022 aug


My body is a scary place 
I don’t control my dreams 
My body is a scary place
Pain ripping through my seams
My body is a scary place 
It seems you made a mark
My body is a scary place, 
Suddenly im afraid of the dark. 
My body is a scary place 
A constant temper gauge 
My body is a scary place
Operating inside a cage
My body is a scary place 
Don’t walk alone at night
My body is a scary place
Constantly prepared to fight
My body is a scary place
I’ll never be as strong
My body is a scary place 
You wield your power wrong
