Make me Lose Control

 Surgeons are control freaks. With a scalpel in your hand, you feel unstoppable. There's no fear, there's no pain.

You're 10 feet tall and bullet proof.

And then you leave the O.R.

And all that perfection. All that beautiful control just falls to crap.

No one likes to lose control but as a surgeon there's nothing worse.

It's a sign of weakness. Of not being up to the task.

And still there are times when it just gets away from you.

When the world stops spinning. And you realize that your shiny little scalpel isn't gonna save you.

No matter how hard you fight it. You fall. And its scary as hell.

Except there's an upside to free falling. It's the chance you give your friends to catch you.
