4 X 50 is not 200

 Sometimes

it eats at me

until

I give in


Like the weak specimen that I am

That I can be


It erodes the barrier of resolve

and gnaws at the inner core


degradation

infatuation

addiction

addition

by

subtraction


I give a piece of me

even when I don't think I can


Even if no one cares

not a martyr


I would never


But someone who gives

even when

no one wants






me
