I'll pick up my sword
I'll wield it night and day
But now I'm on the floor
Bleeding
My fingers slip on the hilt
Every blow I take
Every punishing blow I take
I take it in full
In full
In full understanding
I shall prevail
I shall remain standing
With my sword firm in my hand
But can I survive??
How can I? when the opponent I face is
Myself
It's too true
That as I sit
Enthroned
He lies still
Entombed
The epitaph is clear
I can alomost read the words
I swear
I cuss
I befoul the air with words of fury
The ire blinds me
It stings
I tighten my grip on my long lethal blade of silver
It falls
Even as I fall
It is unmistakable
That I'm about to yield to my own
Wants
She is the one I am wont to have
But we are separated by seas
Vast and untamed
So far away
Thus, I fight with myself
I grapple with this indecision night and day
I seek to let go
Therefore
I wield my sword
It is unmistakable
UNMISTAKABLE
When one of me wins, I end up losing
What's left, is either my mind or my heart
And even that, at the cost of either.
