He cries himself to sleep while
the radio plays depressing beats.
What’s so sweet about these
lifeless treats that are set in our lives like concrete?
He walks alone down his lonely
street waiting for the day to repeat more senseless defeat.
The same thought repeats in his
head asking himself when his life will be complete.
He keeps his feelings discreet in
case of mistreatment from his pawns of deceit.
He feels obsolete with no more
games to play, his arms secrete and his mind pushed in the backseat.
He’s tired of all the backs turned;
tired of the way his heart’s been burned.
There are no more lessons to be
learned, he has no more awards left to be earned.
His mind twisted in lies, broken
ties, and his over sized bruised eyes facing up into the gray skies.
What will end his pain? What ends
the draining of his veins, ending the razors reign?
He’s stuck in the main lane
waiting for his blood to drain to end his strained pain.
Yet he remains in the world, we
ask what he wants to obtain, and his answer’s always the same.
“I want to end the suffering, the
pain, of all those who feel this way. For those who don’t know how to
pray or those who feel astray in
a world filled with dismay.” That’s all he has to say day after day.
