With my back up against the wall I let down my guard for a brief moment,
and I succumb to the overwhelming fears that I have tried so hard to keep away.
I have been in a constant state of running for so long now, always
hoping that I could get far enough away from the fears that made me run in the
first place.
But they always keep up pace, they always stay with me, and they know
the road I run on better than I do.
With my back up against the wall, I falter in my faith, and almost
become a victim to my own inner demons, almost.
I force my eyes open, and I stare directly into the vacant eyes of the
dark entity that I have been hiding from all this time.
I release my clenched fists and loosen my tightened jaw.
I open my arms as if to welcome this terrible follower, but I am not
welcoming any fear of mine, and with a smile I disarm this enemy by disarming
myself.
