Requiem for the Lost

By Blake MorrissonPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

I live the societal loner

Against all norms

Because nothing in this world is normal

I live by a code

That even the Knight of Darkness would approve

I have flaws like the rest of them

I do admit I have commitments that cannot be fulfilled

I do apologise

I cannot help it

I just want it all for the longest time I could imagine

I cannot have all the cake

Everytime

I know more now

The World is Mine

I kept on saying my whole life

Half the time

I wanted to watch it burn

After so many times I was spent on the way back

Like a boomerang

The vicious cycle she once told me

The Cake a certain someone, very close to me

Foretold

All things come to those who have not received

All things end for those who want more than anything

I for one, was overwhelmed

Too ambitious

Still want it all

Still want that same feeling

Like heroin going into the veins

300 conversations about one thing

In the end…

Nothing new

Just a reminder that we are going to be part

In this life

For now I'm in the darkness

Halfway into the light
