Peacefully
I can’t breathe anymore
this lesson I swear I already know
I’ve had to relearn it several times before
Hmm let’s ponder that thought
Why must I keep repeating the same quest
again and again
What is it I’m just not seeing
Perhaps I’ve no epiphany
Reading between the lines just a bit too much
Giving me directions I cannot trust
Accepting without exceptions
Although I must
Always questioning
I’m starting to see where I may have left
some extremely valuable aspects in respect to perpetrating the temptation
Tempting though not sweet
is the everlasting torch that’s never going to be complete
Only competitively repetitive speaking
Wills this conquest’s endeavor to be a true conquer
Walk free in amnesty
