seeping

8 1 1
                                    

drained out of me
It's gone
Were you there in my sleep with your devices?
ready to suck the life out of me
I'm in jeopardy
a constant state of calamity
the apocalypse never coming
again and again on a loop that winds me up
in circles I go round and round searching for the same solution
the same promise
the same saving grace I've always searched for
and it never comes
every time I reach the end of the road it bends down a different path
a new beginning
more long and perilous than the last one
and drained
I am drained
Of all the passion and hope I once knew
it's gone
And left is experience
experience telling me you'll never win
experience throwing me to the waves
letting them tear at me and send me crashing
it's a tragedy
