Poem from my archives
I confess through this hole in my chest
that I am less than I wish to be
Bullet riddled with this insanity
I so am suffering on this long dark path to nowhere
Had it all but lost it all
My pride that came before the fall
Can't dig to get out of this hole
in which I'm drowning
I drink alone but I don't care
I know I'm in the dragon's lair
But I'm here to kill it.
