Battlefield

WRITTEN: 01/17/23

FORMAT: new poem by me. this is when you don't survive the great war :(

Sweet dreaming, slowly creeping

Lurking from behind

Only good vibes compromise

Until your broken promises unleash

And teeter, like tree branches

Your words wither

On this winters night

The past only triggers

As bad luck chimes

I've already justified

All your solemn lies

So now truth pours down

Only paving for muddy ground

What about now?

You've got quite the nerve

To shy away, as I burn

Haven't you heard?

You're gasoline

You just burn me down

But the rain allowed me to captivate

Once fire lit ember

Now ashes of survival

Washed away, down the drain

We're out of time

We've only grown older

And perhaps older

Is the worst over?

No, I never forgot

Backstabbed and betrayed

We fought, 'til we were numb

I'm petrified, that we lost us

Forsaken, cause they won

With their swords and weapons

It was never a fair challenge

Alas, we've eclipsed

And I started it

Or was it them?

You? No, them.

It was them.

They left us in ruins

Scraped in bruises

And the scar

Darkened permanent

I recall the stitches

But we couldn't be woven back

No, it could never be as it was

Scratch the past

Let it fade away

Scratch the past

It only ever pains

Scratch the past

It holds too much ache

Scratch the past

Before it's too late

Fade away

You watched me fade away

And you resulted doing the same

Fade away

That's all we ever do

We just fade . . .
