I do.Don't.I'm as strong as string.Thin as rope.Every bone in my body tells me something,Yet the world says another.Tension.Tensile.A knot tied in my gut.A question.Too many answers.Competition and envy,Sheer fear.I feel sure.But doubt raids.Do it.DO it.DO IT!No.NO.NO!Am I right?Are they right?Ripped paper and refusal,For the words of reason in the room.But my reason is not the one I listen to.And maybe they should?
