Am I fighting a losing battle?
Is it hopeless?
With each step forward,
I feel the chains
that seem to bind me,
pull me four steps back.
When will I break free?
When will I finally be given the chance,
to touch the stars that seem to always
be just beyond my grasp.
I am falling out of love,
with this illusion of life.
This constant battle
that seems never-ending,
with no victory in site.
I am losing faith in hope.
Losing faith in peace.
I need a randomness,
that may allow me the chance,
to fall prey to the next sword
to swing it's death arc.
