Wrestling With Myself

What I thought was shallow 
Became deep 
What I thought I wanted 
I was grateful for its passing 
In a concentration camp of confusion and alienation 
What should've been simple 
Gripped me in its frozen talons
A feeling I don't desire to entertain any time soon 
Tell me how you grace the bottom 
It's fascinating to watch 
I'm here to play a part 
Endorse me 
Ongoing deliberation lingers like chalk dust 
From a black board 
Unable to settle 
My hesitation becomes my greatest attribute 
Lust
Fully and completely 
Blanketed by aggression 
Exacerbating my predilection for desire 
How righteous it all seemed 
How honest 
How devout we once were
How we've discovered ourselves 
I could reach out 
Again 
But that would bear insanity 
The border of heart and mind 
Felt at the exact moment 
There is only one chance 
Allow me to stimulate myself 
Bring about change 
Within me 
So changes us all
