One of my favorite poems i’ve ever written… (this is the second one i posted on here and so far neither one is very positive… at lest this one has a happy ending). Written June of 2003

Staring into nothingness with anguish on my mind
Embrace anti-productiveness wasting all my time
Fight me once again to impose your will on me
But I’d rather take my chances with feigned reality

Everything is simple for everybody else
Sell me some more pity; I’ll gladly share the wealth.
This cynical remorse is getting old and worn
Searching for a rose deep amongst the piercing thorns

The nightmare’s nearly over, at least that’s what they say
But I’ll hang on to all my doubt and feed it by the day
I’ll beat my inner confidence with thoughts of tyranny
Forsake the very consciousness of all I used to be

I never wanted it to come to this, but alas the time is near
I’ll fight it till the very end but the winter’s almost here
I’ll persevere with all my might in hopes to make it through
But the valley’s getting hotter, and the temper’s rising too

So I’m reaching out with all I am in hopes of finding You
But I’m so far down this rotten path I’m blinded to the Truth
So pick me up, and dust me off, and carry me away
Salvage every piece of me let nothing go astray

Hold me in Your hands again, despite my selfishness
And I’ll try to show the worth again of my faithfulness
