Let me go,

let me be.

Leave me alone, allow me to be free. 

-

Loosen your grip,

loosen your hold,

I wish I could tear you away, but you stay strong. 

- 

Lies and strife,

calling from inside.

Whispers in my ear, telling me to hide. 

- 

A shadow

my monster

I resign...

Welcome back, old friend of mine.
