Shame On Me.

Open-handed I stretched out and grasped all my faults and fears. I wrested it towards myself, fighting the searing pain each scratch left as it fought me.

Shame on me for presuming this would be easy. I could not Suffocate the anguish and tears.

Shame on me for letting this monster run rampant in my mind, destroying everything I touch.

Shame on me for only realising now! I can’t let this continue.

Its teeth gnawing, nails ripping and yet I will hold on. I will not let go. I must not let go!

I will calm this beast, I will tame it and snuff out the pain. I will be it’s equal. For I am it and it is me.

Shame on me for only realising now…
