selfstruggles

Trapped inside this old skin
Screaming to get away
With all my might
How I long to begin
Through different eyes today
Trapped inside this old skin
I long to peel it off, take flight
Still on bended knee I pray
With all my might
Sighing, breathing deeply in
Keeping at bay the monster
Trapped inside this old skin
Trying hard to change, to win the fight
Pushing further outwards everyday
With all my might
This is me outside, within
All change resists, is temporary
Still I’m trapped inside this old skin
With all my might.

This piece reminds me of waking up stiff, eyes wide but cant move a limb. If my astral body could relax and stop struggling and smoke a cigarette this is what it might say to the flesh.
Well Done

Oh god, I ADORE that last stanza!
In fact the entire piece is incredible. This is truly what self struggle is like,
should it be depicted through words .. (in a muchly poetic fashion)
I'm sure there are many who can, (and do!) relate to this. Yang's
take was quite fascinating. I would tend to agree.
Excellent post .. I hope you are feeling less of a struggle and more
of an embracing of life. (Because, yes .. that is the truest joy)
take care~
