Untitled (Why Do You Hesitate?)

Why do you hesitate?
Feelings only explode like a bombshell
With all the fury of heaven.
This is no way to live.
No one is really equipped to survive the intensity.
Folks are spoiled by the silence in its place.
Climb under the covers.
Dig deep for the restraint, the control.
Oh, how I wish I was braver.
The tiniest hospitality throws me.
What do I do? How do I rise?
I can’t go back to an embryo to begin again.
I want to open the lock.
But I guess I fear the result too much.
Build me a fortress.
Make it sound and strong.
The wall will protect my prestige.
I dare you to charm your way inside,
But I dare not come out.
