Downfall

Contributed by pl_rage on Monday, 20th October 2003 @ 01:53:12 PM in AEST
Topic: SadPoetry



Injured by an invisible foe
Left behind to bleed alone
Can’t keep the energy inside
Barely have enough to get thru the day
Only to pretend everything is okay
Nothing to spare for something new
No one wants to see thru this façade
Afraid of what they will find

The days keep passing by
Nothing much really happens
They all look the same
Slowly time fades away
Blending all days into one
Can’t find the strength to make it stop
To seize even a single moment
Unable to take hold of fate

Caught in this web of apathy
Not dealing with what’s wrong
Can’t dig deep enough to try
There’s no force to spend on self
The wounded soul will not heal
Not while living this lie
This can’t go on forever
Growing weaker with each phony smile
