Bound (Jump the Gun)

Bound (Jump the Gun)  06-26-2014

I have a tendency, a compulsion, a knack

To live the worst before it falls

Easily tempted off my track

Morose ridden, it lies and stalls

It's already happened

It's already near

It's already been penned

It's already here

I struggle with the fiction

before it becomes fact

I cringe at the diction

and, again, overreact

I bound forward distraught

I just jumped the gun

It never fired a shot

I haven't yet begun
