Here I go, throwing myself to the wolves again,
fighting off the teeth and claws.
How could I have thought it wouldn’t hurt again
when I’ve only been beaten raw?
I wonder if I’ve gained anything for my troubles
when I look around at what I have left.
I never thought I could lose so much in this fight,
so much there that I couldn’t have kept
Everything that I had worked so hard for,
all of it crumbling away.
I know I must desperately hold onto myself,
hold onto things to fight another day.
