i don't want to write.
but i do.

i want to write
what i want
not what you want
not what they want

i want to write
what the words tell me
not tell the words
what i want to write

the power play
is over
between me and the world

i'd surrender
but i can't

in surrender is acceptance
and humility.
two attributes
i find unlikely
to exist

so instead i say nothing
a petulant child
who knows
her stubborn
nature
will break
