The cowardice you now show

Only later shall you know

After the mistakes you never mend

That shall cost you a true friend

Stuck in that inner cocoon

Boarded amidst all your past fear and fright

You let that special bond to take flight

And never be able to set it back right

The coward hidden deep within

Sucks you in to the deepest bin

Till no more light can seep therein

Stuck in that dark hole

You can only regret and repent

For all the things you never ever set straight

Only to later relive every single demon

Born out of every such cowardice

You let it consume you

Never to let you face it head-on

That's my truth that I shall always live forever

I'm the biggest coward I've ever seen
