Weapon

4 2 1
                                    

There is a war between my brain and my body

My brain has no weapons but hope and love

If this was a happy story, hope and love would win

But this is not one of those stories

My body has a gun to my head

If I'm not careful, I may end up dead

My body has my brain in its hands

It has made my brain a mindless weapon

A weapon against my heart

A weapon against my soul

A weapon against me

A beautiful but delicate weapon

Its hope and love a hopeless against its pain

It hurts, but I can't live without it

I'm just waiting for it to break

And when it does, I will break with it
