Eugene S.

acquiesce

what has come over me
they\'ve told me
every one
you\'re not wanted
you\'re not valued
you do not belong

you never did

shall I take my leave
as the sun sets
this twilight
this eve

before the downfall of all
before this world hits the wall
before the dread and the pall
do make their debut

i think i\'ve had enough
a lifetime of resistance
of facing the selfish
of warding their greed
their ever present need
to feed
on what you did never attain

it\'s really a shame

when the back must be turned
when the world must be spurned
rejected and burned

at least, in my mind

well
night, it has arrived
will i survive
and make something new
