Defeat
i hate this life that was put
in front of me
i walk...
then i trip time and time again
each time always harder
to live with
this time i trip but i don't get up
this fall came quick and painful
pushing a realization into my head
each time i get up i always fall
faster and harder then the last
time
only this time i'm going to lie here
till my body gives
i've already let go mentally
so it won't be long
till i completly shut down
since there is nothing to keep
me here
i will give in to the darkness
i close my eyes desprately
not wanting to look back
i'd just walk into the darkness of
defeat
