Midnight

I can't help but make myself vulnerable.

I get scared of pain,

but there is a part of me that will not let me forget who I was.

So now I sit here at midnight,

with all these thoughts about my life.

Am I wrong or am I right,

I will not know until I end this fight,

this quarrel with my mind, body, and soul.

They all are fighting for my heart,

battered,

mistreated,

and faulty at the best of times.

What will you gain from claiming me before they all do.
