Tears overflow
Pressure below threatens to blow
Yet in the eve are they only known
Under cloak of a hopeful fool
I give and give my heart
And yet I don’t receive
What I desire most
But of course it’s me
No one knows my disease of heart and soul
What plagues, my demons,
My existence
Is only me
No one knows
No friend, family, foe, or creature knows my battle
Life exudes from my eyes
But this world bombards with endless grief
A continuous sway between life and death
Haunts me, pushes me,
Paralyzes me, wastes me
‘Til my last breath
