As Yet Untitled

By GreekPhilosopher

My convulsing mind throbs to the thought
Of the downfall my pride has brought
And sorrow fills my being with fire
That burns so intensely without tire

When I think of the things I did wrong
I know that I did them not to be strong
But rather to pass the gruelling test
To finally attain status of being the best

In my shadows eye do I see
All the things handed to me
And none of this will truly do
Until the day I rise above you

I will last that little bit longer
I will grow infinitely stronger

"Of the downfall my pride has brought" a great line and a great piece. but it almost reads like it could use more.but the fact that it feels like it could use more only makes it better because it leaves the reader with the ability to conclude the thought

A former member wrote: cool stuff Greek. i was able to identify most with the first stanza. in the third stanza, i think you could drop " [DO] I see" it might flow better without that..
