Ever Since

"Ever since"
Ever since
I was six
The best for my family and friends I wish
This is about as real as it gets
Reached the top of the cliffs
Then I continued to lift
Upon the clouds I sit
In a state of bliss
Just when I began to reminisce
It all went amiss
The wind and whispers of folks sounding like a hiss
When I got struck by a species that was venomous
Struggling to nix
Always getting my fix
Couldn't ever call it quits
Fell into several rifts
Sunk into an abyss
Then I was entranced by glyphs
Always in a self induced haze
In attempts to reduce the pain
Been at the top of the food chain
From Wednesday to Tuesday
After the same game or some new prey
Old school and also new age
Similar yet so different from Bruce Wayne
I am, but others are not humane
Could've led to doomsday
You dug the grave, and are the only one to blame
I won or I loss and said touché
Nights where the moon waned
Days of sun shining or bouts of afternoon rains
Soon came
Continual products made with Butane
And yet another new strain
Many so quick to, but honestly who's to say
If any very few may
Understand that they'll remain true or stray
It's just not always going to be a two-way
