“The End”

Redemption
Life plays tricks on you
You’re forced to face the world
Reconcile
For no noble act can set you free
Sacrifice begins with want
I want not
I choose not to apologize
Too many lies have shown me
Trust cannot be regained
Once disassembled
Love will not win time and again
You may break the barriers
Go beyond the stars
But life is cruel
Games are meant to be won and lost
And while I pride myself as the non competitive
I can’t stand to lose
This fight
I shall continue
Alone
Cold as you say
I tremble in my defeat
Wishing reality played in your favor
I cower
I hiss
I scream
I am alone
I wish only happiness
Though I feel your contempt
Burning
Piercing
Cursing
Straight through me
And my tortured soul
