A Time

May 18, 2016

There was a time we were so close,

Two chains linked together,

Two rings made with each other,

The yin and yang

Cuz we were so different.

Now? you ask,

Well I don't know,

You see,

The time of lies and cries are here,

Here to destroy what we built up,

I was ready to fight our demons,

But you just left...

We messed up,

I did my time,

Now I waited for you to step to the plate,

I waited,

And waited,

You never did and now look at us.

I don't understand why your shutting me out,

I was falling into a black pit of despair,

We were falling,

But then you reached on to a ledge sticking out and grabbed it and saved your self.

I kept falling until I was numb to the feeling of the downward pull of dread and pain,

Then one day it changed to regret,

I was tired of the quietness,

Lack of insight,

The abandonment,

The loneliness,

The anger felt good that one day I gave in..

I am dead now,

I have no feeling other than the pain and regret,

But may the world live on cuz I'm no longer a threat.

May you live on,

Oh precious king,

I'm tired of your bullshit,

Now give me a break.
