-untitled-

As I sit in sobriety
I reminisce about the future
and uncertainty

The infinite possibilities that appear to me
Slowly my skin begins to bleed as
I am found wanting

What? I do not know
This battle I must undergo
Before I am dragged undertow

Seeing futures without dead ends
My thoughts begin to mend
What ideas and dreams become fused

Fearing nothing; accepting my fate
Nothing will become second rate
Heat engulfs the state

Knowing how I fall ;Knowing how I fail
Leaning against the wall
The only thing saving me is the rail

Self preservation of the strangest kind
The melancholic splendor of the sublime
I now have plenty of time

You take away everything
I take nothing
My pride is reborn through the evil that scorns

Nothing is more important than what I have
I will never give in to a gnave
My life is reborn

A phoenix rising from the ash
I know that I am not last
Regaining the power I once had

Forfeiting everything for what I am
You act like you know me
Sharing what you think of me

Living like a king
Sitting on the phoenix wing
Nightmares become waking dreams

Nothing is obscene
I have the pride of living
The power in my heart sets me free
