Here I lay now, cold at heart
My love, my honor, ripped apart
Yet there is no time to weep.
I have charges in my keep.
Will I get them back who knows.
Hopefully 'fore my own death throes
The world, I've found, is cruel and harsh
Like sludging through an endless marsh.
On we fight, and all will fall
For Life lets no one have it all.
You fight the most for things you want
So you may have something to flaunt.
Yet life fights back in many ways.
Soon you see the end of your days.
For Time is her ally, forever more.
Soon you knock at Death's own door.
So here I lay, thinking long.
My lips murmering some strange song.
Trying hard to figure out
What life is really all about.
"What's the point" I ask myself.
The deathshade comes with utmost stealth.
And before you realize the facts.
Life has sealed her dangerous pacts.
The human life is short and bleak
People always wanting to seek
You hole yourselves in forts or shacks
The better to withstand her imminent attacks.
We hide behind technology
Yet will no one ever truely see
The facts of life, as they are,
will have you wishing on a star.
So fight on humans if you must.
But be prepared, for one day, you're dust.
I shall lie awake at night.
And will also continue to fight.
Yet now, I fear, I've lost it all
My heart, trust, honor, doomed to fall.
For this night, I lie awake
Thinking of the words you spake
About how you think I waste my time
Even as words fall into rhyme
So now, I take my final bow
No more pain. Not here. Not now
A second chance you will deserve
When you prove you can keep your word.
Until that day, even if it's forever
No more, for you, will I endeavor.
A friend you'll always have in me
But as for now, romantically
You're love belongs to another one
There is no room for me. I'm done.
