Exhumed For Tomorrow Poem by Sven Rhoads

So lifeless and cold this present time has become
I cant find a pulse in this life that I lead
Too many excuses have been already born
Before the problem can get to its feet

So much for living in the moment
Just existing like an empty stone
Serpents venom is now so potent
Rotting me being down to the bone

Plan ahead for the new dawn
Cause today is already gone
Buried 6 feet down below
Come alive again in tomorrow

So I've grabbed my shovel to open my eyes
Pull something out of this empty grave
For weeks and months will materialize
That there is something to be made

Desire to rid myself of the sick and tired ways
To fill my lungs with the breath of a new life
Arise from the coffin where I once have laid
To take back the things that are rightfully mine
The need to escape this time in a hole
Before the worms feast on whats left of me
Its time to climb out and refill my soul
And see that tomorrow has instore to see
