One sultry afternoon in the wild, a lioness rests, eyes peacefully closed - fearless. Never vulnerable, always confident At ease in the face of anticipated threat. She awakes - almond eyes slit Sun gleams brightly on her poised appearance, standing firm on the grassy plain, tranquil and strong, she emulates power. One bitter night in my institution, My body sits still, eyes nakedly exposed - gutless. Always defenseless, never certain Troubled by life and the opportunities I destroy. I frantically pace - insides twirling, The darkness engulfs my being and soul, I am alone in my existence, nobody's concern detached from composure, I am powerless. |
