Winner Takes All

Winner Takes All

A Poem by D. Nelson
"

Written for the "inspired by a lyric 6" contest. read and enjoy.

"
The merciless chill of winter cold
runs through my veins.
The tempo set by that
which can never be changed.
It can't be restrained...

Now it's not just the cold
that runs deep inside..
What also lurks amongst me
is so far from divine...
I never played through my mind...
The fault was all mine.

If it comes for you,
then you ask yourself
one more question.
"Am I ready to die?"
How long can you hide?
You wont know what happened
until long after you can't survive.
So clear that it can even hide in the light.

"Am I ready to die?"

You inflicted t upon your self
and you didn't know why.
But it's answer your calls
so far before your true time.
For there was no fight when
you had to go.
The thought of leaving now
would seem to scare you.
But you were so numb
that you didn't even know
until it was too late.

It was not your fate...

But you brought this evil here
and now it wont wait...
Are you ready to die?
"Am I ready die?"
You cannot hide.

Are you ready to die...
For you regrets and your mistakes?
That's what you get for playing the game..
Without knowing what the winner takes.
