Bored Words

Taking my time through the struggles I face Trying hard not to bow out in disgrace Thinking how can I still win this race Time keeps coming at me While I try to stay free Looking ahead Time gets me down Instead Fighting my demons inside The pain and confusion I can barely hide Times I gave up and cried Sat there on the ground Cried without a sound Thought I couldn't go on so long Was wrong So many a time Couldn't make sense out of lifes little rhyme Love, lifes only crime The battlefield, my mind Nothing left there to find Writing my pain Keeping it plain For all to see Nothing is free All them good things that be Come and go Just so you know What do I see What was left behind was me The stain In my brain No reason to cry Life never tells you why Then you die Time keeps on going Your stain keeps on growing I don't know I forgot to grow Does it show
