This world doesn't wait for me.
These aching hands and feet
Are the evidence of this painful reality.
When I wake up from this dream,
Please tell me not to scream.
In this world that I hate,
Time goes by so fast,
If you blink you'll be late,
You'll miss the blissful treat,
Of my trembling heartbeat.
I yell and fight.
Reaching towards the light.
I have been scarred,
Been blighted
By the merciless hands that strangle me.
They continue to move.
Showing no restraint.
As if to prove
My useless existence.
My blood paints
The broken picture of my life.
The lines and curves
Show my beautiful struggles,
Shows all the shoves and hustles,
That creates the person I am.
It's like a game.
Too late to beg,
Yet too early to cry.
That if by any chance I must defy
The cruel fate of reality,
It'd be best that I'd die.
For no one wants a coward.
Easily overpowered
By the darkness that lurks in the shadows.
Easily imposed
By their fear.
Knowing that the face of death is near.
No one wants a person like that.
I am not ready for compromising,
Nor am I ready for combat.
The arms so strong,
Effortlessly proving me wrong,
Showing that resistance is futile.
That I would only encounter something more brutal.
As I stare into the eyes of the continuously moving hands,
I finally understand.
That it was me.
The hands of time,
Have constrained me,
Because of the monster I am.
I have inhibited the world of its desires,
I have become a liar,
A thief,
I have conspired.
I am the monster that created this.
How could I miss
The asperity that has surrounded me?
I have eaten and devoured,
All of the light of this world.
My sanity has disappeared,
Into no more.
I am the monster,
I am the devil.
What have I done
To have reached this level?
What am I?
I have lost my way,
I have been led astray.
There is no hope for me,
For I cannot plea,
For the damage that I have done,
Has left no one-none
I have killed humanity,
I have blamed everybody,
I rejected reality,
I was the imposter,
For I am the one,
I am the monster.
