Time goes on the ticking of the strong tock

And in my dark thoughts I feel like I'm stuck

Words have failed to escape my memory

No pennies for my thoughts, more like a buck

I wonder why the talent let me go

Did someone turn the dial so way down low

The wisdom went to find serenity

All I am left with is sleet, hail and snow

The weather shows no kindness to my pen

In limbo I will surf to find my Zen

And bring back my individuality

The sadness lies in the battle of men

I've reached mid-way, there's no turning back now

For there will be no queen who's forced to bow
