Im tired (plz comment)

I'm tired of fighting, tired of losing, and so very tired of my face.
I'm tired of waiting and just plain tired of this hated place.
Somehow I need the patience of the Earth
When even the moon questions my worth.

My flesh crawls and pains me every hour,
But to change it, I just don't have the power.
I gave my life to fierce ambivalence
And saw there was no end to your loathing contrivance.

You crowned yourself a god until the end of time,
But I question your purpose as I question mine.
I awake from my slumber to live in a nightmare
And see the dreams that I once had that are no longer there.

My mouth drips with an inner fire
Of deep hatred and desire.
I stand naked in the rain,
Burning with a fever of pain.

I dam the river of love
And scream at the sky above.
I paint it red and the earth of black.
All the things I've done I'll never take back.

I curse the world and all that it contains,
But mostly I curse you and your goddamn reins.
Mutant thoughts flow through my head.
You've assured me I'd be better off dead.

Death's ebony arrow once did pierce my fragile skull,
But I struck back with the force and strength of an angry army full.
Thereupon the darkened horizon stood my faceless foe.
'Twas later I did learn that you were holding the bow.

Now nothing keeps me warm in the night,
No longer even the thought of my endless fight.
And though I'll detest it, I'll continue to sail my open vessel on
the high seas,
Across the wide ocean of confusion, through the deep abyss of
desire, and into the rough tides of unease.

I'm tired...

But I'll continue...

To do battle...

With you...

Forever...

And ever...

Until the end of time...
