More Duke's

They both seem real

almost like they're me

I'm relating

confidence to overcome

frightened to leave the house

its hits like a brick to the head

brain damage

6 months or more to repair

how much damage before the permanence?

there is none

the dream

i watch

scattered

ghosts

i will run

i will stretch into a pretzel  

confidence regained

hold to me

cling to me

grasp

either way as if I'm real

but I am

so I move

its beautiful sometimes

creating

its always creating

like me

love me

my insides scream for silence

black

then I'm thrown in the ring

I am strong

i have my weathered belt

my leathered skin protects

my heart opens

I have the beam
