I live in extremes,
Whatever  it means.
I always give it all,
I'd answer every call.

My highs were too high,
And I'm down deep when I cry.
It was how it always has been,
There was no place in between.

I walk to the sea,
And drown in fear constantly.
I swim with the sharks,
And bear deep ugly scars.

This vice takes its toll,
But now I can't lose it all.
I just can't help but mend,
Always a confidant never a friend.

Take all that I could offer,
For no one does it better.
My heart doesn't beat-
it flutters,
So when I fall it doesn't break-
it shatters.
