I cry for me
I cry for you
Most of all,
I cry for this mirage
That I live.
When will sweet darkness
Take me over?
When will the peace of silence
Sooth my soul?
Not soon enough.
I beg for me
I beg for you
Most of all I beg
For forgiveness.
When can I leave
My torment behind?
When will this path
Go into wilderness of unknown?
Not soon enough.
I dream for me
I dream for you
Most of all
I dream of a better day.
When will I smile?
When will I laugh a real laugh?
Not soon enough.
I die for me
I die for you
Most of all
I die to escape the pain.
When will I truely die?
Then, will I escape the pain?
Not soon enough.
I choose for me
I choose for you
Most of all
I choose to finish the game.
Will I Loose?
Will I win and celibrate
with no regrets, life and death?
Not soon enough.

Live life my friend,
And I will live on too.
Learn from, do not regret the past
And make the best of it all.
Most important, finish the game.

Strong finish to an otherwise completely despairing poem. I love this piece wolf, I could feel the emotion behind it.

Thank you for your replies. This was a very emotional piece for myself to write. It means a lot to be able to put them on here, and have good replies. Thank you again, glad you like it.
