inspired

this is my life
you will not force me into your box of oppression.
i will scratch my way to the surface
perhaps through the pores of your skin,
i will find my way out.
i will always be lurking beneath your shadows
never forgiving
but growing.
there is light breaking through my darkness,
i have seen it and i can confirm
it exists.
never forgiving
always growing.
i have snatched that trophy back,
you lost the race before it even began
too bad
for you.
