Deeper II: Failure
Like a man with no home
Left my heart and soul to roam...
Silent voices never cheer,
Neither do they tell what they hear
Light always seeks to prevail
But my hope gives up, get boat, set sail.
Saying here is where you shouldn’t be
But new surrounds help you forget, feeling free
On the horizon Pain’s return I see
Unfamiliar with that place, can’t hide or seek
Failures seduction now attaches
Hold on tight locks with latches
Desire and Focus quickly head to the door
Unable to take what they see anymore
Internal screams for relief no one in sight
Left imprisoned day and night
Can’t feel it but know there’s good in me
Faint voice appears telling me where to be
I gave all I had and that wasn’t enough
No longer the strength to be so tough
Finding it hard to breathe,
Like a sword unable to release
As doubt and failure flood my mind
Knowing that I’ve lost for the first time
Never aware of the agony of defeat
When this man always lands on his feet
So while pondering on my next move
I hear a voice that says wake up you fool
To be continued…
