Defeated

Tears of sadness,
Flow down my cheeks,
Empty my soul,
As I cut myself to bleed,

Fighting a battle,
That I can never win,
Full of defeat,
Burning from within,

Pain from the names,
That strike in my head,
Pain from the sadness,
That brings me towards death,

Always incomplete,
Compared to myself,
Staring at a blank reflection,
As I diminish my wealth,

Let me go now,
Release me from these chains,
Stop holding on,
And let me kill the pain,

It wasn’t the right way,
To cure this defeat,
But it was my way,
To make me finally see,

I am hurting,
No one said I was fine,
I betrayed you,
Lied to your eyes,

Can’t go on now,
Without inflicting pain,
Death is the only way to close the hole,
And stitch the wound that remains.
