Rise Above


I just don't want to leave you now,

Growing comfrotable in this chaos.

You are the one I stand against.

Your fist shattering my teeth,

This beautiful relationship of ours,

I just don't want to leave you now.

The constant struggle to breathe,

Always making me feel so dross.

You are the one I stand against.

The weight of your hate pushing me underneath,

The dirt and yet still with the brainwash

I have to leave you now,

No longer shall I stay in my sheath.

I now stand with the women in ethos,

You are the one I stand against.

The only blessing is in death to be lead to Lethe,

For I must leave you now.

Memory of you washed away in the water-drops,

You are the type we all should stand against.
