HELL & BACK
I can still remember the pain of that year,
A time when the pain of my heart became too much to bear,
Losing my mind with every series of nightmare,
Racing faster than time like the quick heels of a hare.
That pain of failure from that year could still be felt,
Tattooed on my mind like the hideous scar from a whipping belt,
The insults and mockeries could still be heard,
The anguish it gave still roam around inside my head.
Nothing sums up to that very year of rejection,
Casted away due to the result of my slow motion,
Ridiculed for always trying but coming up short,
Their chronic laughter still echo in my head with touches of their heavy shots.
The depression of that year couldn't be matched,
The essence of my existence was outclassed and bashed,
The earth trembled and a giant fell flat on his back,
The loss of hope in a blank room still pops up rather than just be a flashback.
Some things in this life never last forever,
The right channel would definitely put you back on the right lever,
Transported towards redemption with worries at bay,
It's totally a different story for me today.
