Tipping Point

Undefeated,

Never cheated,

On my knees-and,

Still breathing,

Somethings leaking,

Barely seeing,

Fingers bleeding from,

Scratching at the ceiling.

Im trapped but,

My soul is fleeing, I

Couldnt ever go higher.

I never cheated,

But I may be a liar,

Because I'm no longer me.

Most people in life strive to be the best at anything they can do. This is not abad thing, but it's hard to miss the fact that regardless of sucess or failure, peoplewill still hold sadness within. If you've dissected the poem, you'l find out that no matter how hard you work in life, you can only go as far as the universe willallow you.  Thanks for your time to direct your attention towards my work.
