I Lost! Poem by Bakare Oluwagbenga Michael

I struggle hard with myself;
Trying to shrug off this nightmare;
My heart bleeds day and night;
From the wound your lies have inflicted;
I grow weaker by the day;
And restlessness seems to take over my nights;
I battle my heart to flush you off my head;
But my heart is just too weak to conquer the battle;
I feel so lost like a lonely planet;
Even in the midst of joyous congregations;
The thought of still missing you kills me;
And the thought of stll loving you boils me to rage;
I feel so trapped in your spell of futility;
It feels like I'm in a battle my heart does not wish to win;
There are no two ways about it;
I've lost to you even before the battle began...
