I’ll choke through the bloody sermons of truth
As I battle the clouds that have overcast in my head
I choose to be living; I’d be better off dead
The only thing preventing me from shedding these tears,
Is the tolerance for pain I’ve built up all these years
The numbness I feel dulls everything away,
I’m cursed by the gods as I kneel down to pray
Forgiveness is hardest when only you know the truth
A secret so deep; a worry so loose
Don’t hide me Don’t hate me , Don’t let me fade away
You know the inconvenient truth ,
It burns in your brain
But even your regret won’t take away my pain…

For sweet summer days will turn swiftly to fall,
And then very soon with the winter I’ll brawl…

This was deep and searching...I think as poets or constant thinkers, we eventually find our way to the "truth".
