Pieces

Like a puzzle, I am scattered, lost in the world and mixed around to where I'm difficult to complete. Easy to defeat, simple to beat, all the deceit and drowning in quicksand from head to my feet. Hearts racing, my movements are now slowly pacing, I'm weak, and weary. The blood that bleeds, the pain makes my eyes teary, the enemy succeeds, and the hurt continues to breed. I crawl on my broken hands, there is none that understands, the wicked one and his demands. The reign over my life is pushing me away from hope, I pray, I pray and I pray. A change I hope to see one day, a morning I hope to see soon and wake up to in every morning. I'm burning with eagerness, I'm sparking up a desire, and its my pieces that fall into the fire. I'm dying, I am losing, but will not give up without trying. I won't lose, a choice I choose, a fool, but a man is how I will stand and put an end to when the end is at hand.

Welcome Nicholas! All of us have that demand of isolation and pain, but there is hope, and admiration for what we can foresee. Keep on, and thank you sharing it.
