Writing in The Dark

Free To Rise

"Twisted" by Keith McHugh

Hope is fading,

I've been participating,

Patiently waiting,

Playing a game,

I'm secretly hating.

My health is fading,

I'm wading through debt,

I can't care for my pet,

I don't see an end yet.

I'm so tired of the hour,

Devouring my life.

Her's some Change for you strife,

I hope it satisfies,

Are the lies we're told.

I can only fantasize,

The peace in my demise,

So my spirit is free to rise.
