The Push



The Push

The melancholy rises, black death from underground
Pushing to get thru’ and take my life around
A curse thru’ the ages, wrecking it in stages
I must be courageous, for I am one of the lucky pages

Called to have darkened plains without dire nails
The rise hammers at my bedrock with hate filled pails
I keep my sanity thru’ profound profanity
Denying deity, that belief in insanity

But time is the great tantalizer supposedly a tranquilizer
This lie, a panacea prescribed for paranoia, is Ebenezer
It keeps the cure while time is consistent
Torturous miser leaving wrecked humanity indigent

So I harm myself to anesthetize the pain
Having the pathway I walk in vain
Temporary brightness is the sweet high
To get beyond that’s the bitter I strive to try
