A Tired Beast

Like a hungry vampire, pursues me loneliness Scarier than sharp canines for me human phoniness I feel myself a tired beast in the jungle Which life has driven into a blind angle But is calling ahead brutal struggle Who knows - if will find me buddle?

The idea behind your poem is so distinct at the start but, the struggle to find who you want seems to stop you in your tracks. And that, of course, holds you back, exhausted. Tis a case of keep on trying both in writing and searching. Perhaps?

The struggle for a place under the sun and the satisfaction of conscience can be very grueling, but this is the necessary path without an alternative.I described the moment of desperation, which is natural, but does not inhibit the movement forward.It's like a samurai's despair before a battle, who does not know if he will perish, but the battle is his duty.
