Tick Tock

in #poetry8 years ago

Is this the weight of the world,
Or another seismic shift?
This elephant on my chest refuses to leave.
Your vacant seat was filled with the eyes of a vacated heart.
I can't stand the look of you anymore.
Your trouble Brews and you have no release.
Break the pot.
Let it out.
But you refuse.
You lost your soul fighting a war you couldn't win.
You lost your way shining the light for everyone else.
You lost your time trying to rectify the past.
Now it's just you, and your demons.
A wayward, soulless, soldier fighting the demons you imagined and created.
It's a losing battle.
You're just to proud to quit.
