surrender...and not.

we do what we want to do and then it becomes what we have to do 
i don't want to do it anymore
what i loved has turned corporate
heartless
i'm wearing a suit and i miss my pajamas
i miss my fear of the unknown
i miss the struggle
i want to rely on you again
i don't rely on you
but yesterday i laid myself down
face to the floor
again
finally
because i could not lift my head any longer
i had to admit defeat
again
finally
the tears fell
i was cleansed
freedom
and so i pulled myself up
and stood
on my own
and swore i would admit defeat to no one
so here i am
falling
on my face
again
finally...
