Relief

I only now let go.

Realizing peace is so simple.

My efforts were in vain.

No words left to voice;

Draining myself.

It can't be this:

All my peers.

These cracked bones.

Thick hair.

Many talents.

It's this now -

Relief.

A good feeling?

No.

Isn't this a good feeling?

My sweaty palms.

It's the cause of

The adrenaline.

Some chemical energizing me.

Overstimulating me.

It stirs me into a frenzy.

After so much planning,

I give up.
