Out of Bounds

"
Bounded by the fear and anxiety of change,
Obsessed with keeping control in range,
Avoiding any danger everyday,
He grows accustomed to keeping life a certain way.

Sanctifying of daily routines becomes obsession,
White chalk outlines all his possessions.
At ease within the structure of his home,
door always shut to the outside dome.

Choosing to brave death to allow life for a friend,
He believes the world is out to get him until the very end.

A bright room greets him warmly,
a shy hello he greets her formally.
Sitting beside him-her motor still running as he freezes,
realizing her condition is opposite his- his body slowly eases.

As she spoke not one word he could utter,
for not understanding people- he understands a heart's flutter.
