The Trigger

Why won't you go away? Why do you stay?
Pulling the trigger out of nowhere and I caught with the stray?
Paralyzed, confused, as my body begins to sense the feeling,
Afraid to speak, words escape me, for the topic is not appealing.
I hate the girl who was once myself that I've been escaping over the decades
Free, trapped, elated, doomed, dreadful of the dopamine drop as my brain consumes
The memories of the moments spread beyond the years,
Age 3 and the only thing I was allowed to feel was fear. 
Bartered and sold, sold and bought was the existence i was met
Set up for failure, a life is have to fight for, with immeasurable pain I'll never forget.
I don't ask why, that's a mission in futility,
I take a deep breath, ask how myself how, and continue to walk forward in my abilities.
