Me

Take this pain
Let it drain
Cant stand this rain
Its blood stained red
This heart beats
Draws near 
To the end i wait
I pray for time
I search for balance
As a pendulum of chaos swings
Hurt runs deep and strong
It takes a piece of me every second of everyday.
I hear life's clock annoyingly ticking down
To my final show down
The hour i give in 
The minute i try to change
A foot of disappointment in my ass
Living life was a hot mess
But in the end it wont bend
It will take all i have just to stand
And reach for that light even though it has always been dark
I feel i will finally be accepted as ME.
I hope.

Ego forgo, look not for an echo, all’s enabled when no desires are tabled
