Bound by Insecurity

Bound by the eyes, hands, and shackled feet
Lead into an arena of the unknown
With a deafening beat of the heart
An eerie silence
Surrounded by the elements of dry heat, slight wind, and a burning sun
Fear causing mental anguish
A lump rising in the throat, preventing vocalization

Is it better to see whats to happen?
Should I turn from possible pain?
Should I fight?
Should I plead?

Overwhelmed with fear, causing a gravitational pull
Kneeling, rocking back and forth
An eruption of laughter and tears, loosening what was covering the eyes
Blinded by light, and focusing on the chained closed sweaty hands
Opening to reveal a key

Will you free yourself to face whats to come?
Will you remain bound, and give up?
What will your choice be?
