For me
It has seemed like
An infinity
Since I
Was where
I needed and wanted
To be
Hope lost
Along with much identity
But having an affinity
To be me
Once again
As fate and life
Wanted to go deeper
Into the realm
Of a place that
That I thought
I would never have to face
But wind up being the case
And sounded off an alarm inside
And outside
To what I called
The mayday
And had me feeling
Some kind of way
That I never thought possible
The improbable
From before feeling like
The unstoppable
But then the train
Came
To a screeching halt
No matter how much
The fight that I had fought
A twelve round bout
With a serious knockdown
Is what I
Had suddenly found out
No doubt
Through the thick and thin
And had discovered
More loss than a win
Then having to pretend
That this wasn't the case
But as all evidence pointed to
And was actually traced
Going to subordinate
In my own life
From a boss
Over and over again
As I counted the cost
For it's time
For me to rise
From being
Long lost
