More Than One Opponent

Choke
Suddenly another weak breath
endless ways to re-enact the conflict within
tempers flare, they seem to go unnoticed
for the last time, hold on tight
sorry crossed my mind
fearless
It must seem so selfish
faint reflection fallen from my eye
takes a war to bring you down
try to search for resistance
fragile contents unforeseen attenuation
held together by my voice
tearing through the crowd
silent stare
I'd always tell you to move forward
confident to push broken glass aside
it's hard for you to see
I will always be so close by
hear me breathing
understand my intentions
shape each moment
who's to blame, who's to say
what's right be wrong and I will
othing feels this true in anguish
accept our faults one last time
patience expired
fearless when we always
seem to learn the hard way
drop all pretentiousness
takes a war to bring you down
understanding before this gets too far
start to see things clearly now
instead of on my own
keeping things consistent
a barrier broken through
