I am so afraid that one day I will not be enough.

That I won't be strong enough to say no.

That one day it will all be too much.

I'll do what I've always thought about and decided against.

That when I've been kicked down one too many times.

I'll give up on myself.

One more minute,

They say.

One more,

Then you can go.

No matter how much

You've already done.

One more minute,

They say.

One more,

Then you will go.

No matter how much

You want to run.
