Defeat

Things always happen this way
Before i can register them
Before i can get a grip

There are brief periods of decieving calm
And then all hell breaks loose
Resiliant and devastating

Shattering every little brick
I might have put together all this while
To build an invisible pillar within

Leaving me more broken than ever
And getting up on my feet
Seems like a distant possibility

I sink in a bottomless pit
There's no way out
There's only way in

To my demons
Sneering at my failure
Readying to blow out the tiny spark within

And so i give in...
I give up...
I accept defeat...
