Beaten Within
by me

stuck inside my lonely mind,

Walls battered blue.

Appearing, notions of ending time

ramble on through.

Jumbled words rambling

Thinking is just gambling

Bruises just stagger in

Mind beaten paper thin

I feel beaten within
yet no bruises on the skin

Depressed, Bored, yet still amused
Loved, wanted, yet still abused

Hate, fear, and sinful wealth
Fat, scars, and falling health

help to nurse me

ease the pain

make it sunny

stop the rain

Kiss it better

Push ahead

Go and get her

Slap it dead

Fill this page with happy words

Scribble in rage, what happy words?

beaten, battered, scared for life

Cowards end it with a knife

Live it, hate it, till it's gone

Drink, and party till the dawn

Beaten, battered, scared for life.....

 

Born a coward this life.
