traps

set out on the ground 

wired up in the trees

encircling my mind

how come I dont know

until you have me all

just too trusting I guess

how long will it take

to recognize the mistake

not long I wont mess up

isn't it easier to push

all of them away so that

they don't pull you in?

isn't it easier to anger

than to forgive and

move on to forget?

isn't it easier to blame

the captor and the one

who let it happen?

isn't it morally right

to be so angry?

so I can protect myself

isn't it safer for me

if I just assume that

everyone is horrible?

isn't it wrong though

to judge so quickly?

for only selfish safety?

isn't it easier to stay

stuck in the traps than

try to fight out?

isn't it easier to give

give up and die alone

than to continue living?

but

isn't it worth it

to see another rainy

storm and angry sky

isn't it comforting

to help someone else

who needed you?

isn't it convenient

that your anger and rage

can be used to save?

isnt it empowering

to throw their traps

back in their face?

now its time

to prove to them all

and to show them

they were wrong.
