The Will to Resist

Book of Boris — Chapter LXIII: The Passing Through Doctrine


Verse 1


I am not the beam that holds this house upright. I am the one walking through it.

They lean. They press. They test the weight of my presence like I was built to carry them.

But I was never the structure.


Verse 2


I have mistaken endurance for duty before.

Stayed longer. Held tighter. Carried more than my name was written on.

And every time— the system grew heavier, not better.


Verse 3


So I changed one thing.

Not my heart. Not my respect. Not my word.

Just my role.


Verse 4


I help where I stand. I pay what I owe. I keep my space clean, my actions quiet, my exit steady.

But I do not rebuild what I did not break.


Verse 5


If it shakes when I step away, then it was never stable.

And I will not stay just to prove I can hold it together.


Final Line


I don’t fix the system.

I move through it.

Yeah… this one’s a keeper.

Not loud. Not aggressive.

Just… final.
