Every Now And Again

By SirEnders

Every now and again, I just take a deep sigh
It’s another day where I just wanna die.
Everyone tells me it’ll get better
I take a look around and ask will it ever?
I’ve looked death in the face on many accounts
He’s stared me down, no mercy, not one ounce.
He knows my weaknesses and indulges in them
I’m simply like a dead and wilted flower’s stem.
No one seems to give a damn whether I’m okay
“But we do! We all care!” that’s what they all say.
If I were to leave some would care for a little bit
But, sooner than they think, stop giving a shit.
This world has been swallowed by our transition
I live by honor, integrity, and tradition.
 All who need to feel like a king will be revolted upon
By the ones they have wronged, the throne is open.
Lucifer will overtake the world, he holds the keys
I’d rather die on my feet than live on my knees.
No matter where I go, I get the same old feeling
I feel as though my throat is slowly sealing.
I don’t need happiness, I’ve made it this far without it
I have seen things that made me seem off a bit.
I take a breath and feel a pain in my chest
Why can’t it all just end, I try my best.
Everyone tells me I’m dark, twisted, and terrible
I have just accepted the cruel inevitable.
We’re all going to die, face the fact
Regardless of your blood pact.
While you die, I’ll run with the pack
Your body has become a savory snack.

    I keep re-reading this, I like your choice of words and I can identify with it very much (well except the tasty snack - I'll pass on that! :-P )
