Battlefield

Shut your mouth
I don’t want to hear another word
I am off of this battlefield
I have removed the sword
I wish you’d leave it lying there
But I know you won’t
You will drag me back
I’ll be stuck on these grounds for years
Until I prove you wrong
Maybe even after

I am running
But the ground moves as I do
Or so it seems
It speeds up
You grab the sword and throw it as hard as you can
Right into my heart
I constantly pull it out
But you pick it up and throw it again
It hits the mark
Hurting worse than before

If it’s what it takes
I’ll do it
I’ll throw the sword back
To make you learn
Hand it over
I won’t miss
Now leave me alone!
