Not Worth The Wait Poem by Ace Of Black Hearts

Not Worth The Wait



Stuck in boxing ring.
My opponent is me.
How do I win?
How do I avoid the bloody lip.
And broken nose.
A bruised ego.
A decaying shadow.
A present wrapped up in a poisonous rainbow.
Looks beautiful but so deadly.
The cancer of time.
Whittling on away.
In this state.
It might be time to give myself a break.
Ring the bell.
Run like hell.
Prayers do tell.
And the ones I holds dearest to my heart.
Go unanswered.
Another dollar to the topless dancer.
At least it an honest wage.
Lock me in a cage.
Scream, hoot, holler.
Wearing a spiked dog collar.
Anything feel different.
Anything to avoid the pain.
Crossing the desert in a single engine plane.
Only to go down in flames.
Crash, bang, boom.
This time your gonna lose.
Yes you.
It just can't be true.
Turning blue.
A look-a-like dreams running amok.
Get the forklift we gonna to need another pick up.
Locked and loaded.
Duck and slide under that truck.
Playing hiding go seek for keeps.
But only it gives life a little more meaning.
Because I can't wait with this train already leaving.
Some goals aren't worth the wait it in achieving.'
Sorting out the old demons.
This one belongs, this one doesn't fit.
And this one isn't finished.
Isn't finished.
Never will be finished.
