I Refuse To Drown

Freakish frenzy clashing joints;
Denied release creates strife.
Reaching up, stretching growth;
Muscles atrophied.
Declaring war on these wounds;
Battle scars erased.
Butting heads is no more;
Be gone pain, prickly thorn!
Shoulders up against the wind;
Storm is dying down.
Take aim and make your mark;
I refuse to Drown.
