My Willingness

I will always resolve to outrun the next crisis. 

I will sometimes incur trauma out of desperation. 

I will never allow my essence to be separated even as my consciousness splits. 

I will forever be in limbo in my quest to independence. 

I will one day stop trying to be a martyr-

As if my sacrifice will lead to a cure.
