Its not about wrestling, I shitted this out

Wrestling

I remember being at age 6
In my grandmothers room with an old television set
When I first discovered professional wrestling
My first worldly obsession was met

Royal Rumble 2006, my first hero the luchador who didn't meet the bosses height
He came in at #2 persevered until the very end, a miraculous fight
Until then I was hooked to the oddness and weirdness that is professional wrestling
Its all scripted and fake ,but like all forms of entertainment the stories were not

Funny, ridiculous, traumatic, loving, enduring, enlightening 
They put butts on the seats and sacrifice their bodies as they fought
Smiles, laughter's, chants, tears, sweat in the crowds as thousands of matches were performed
Bitched, praised, attacked, different fanbases are formed 

Wrestlemania 22, my first ever spectacle
My hero the luchador won his first world title
Alongside a man who can't be seen ending a reign of terror

My spectacles, my escape as I wrestled pillows imitating moves
Speaking promo's to GI Joe's as i pitted them against my wrestling figures
Even then my escape was never enough 
As I grew older, spirals of madness slowly began to linger
Often I would picture the world and treat it as a wrestling  ring
To prevent my soul and my heart from feeling horrid stings

Was I quite the lunatic? looking back then  probably yes
It took a handful of years for me to fully caress 
In a chaotic environment with a mind of innocence
Like me and a billion had not met their own penance 

Years have passed
Thousands of matches, storylines spoken through its universe 
An unbeatable streak, snatched by a beast
That man who can't be seen now face's the fans of terror 
A bearded underdog who overcame obstacles 

And a hundred of them more, inspiring the generations 
To chase after their dreams, improve their well being physically and mentally 
Or perhaps to see the world more creatively 

As for me well? The world might have broken me in half 
I would be a liar if I said my problems were  few 
However if you're so curious to know, in the most desperate time of need
I have always kicked out of 2

WrestleMania 40
A Canadian luchador, my hero wins unexpectedly for a title win
A man who used to be never seen ends a reign of terror 

In a loving environment with a mind littered with controlled chaos 
Like me and many others have officially found their own penance 

Thousands of matches, storylines spoken to the next generation
And on going forward now then forever
Around the globe entertaining different weathers

In full honesty, I really have no idea why I wrote this
Deep in my heart I have always seen pro wrestling differently from the many 
I guess what i'm trying to say is always kick out of 2
