Exhaustion

By: Juki

Battered souls of aching hearts

Mortal wounds and ageless thwarts

Of jaded and blood that spill through wounds

                Lifeless ambition long have swooned

Succulent perspiration do shed like tears

Long lived through turmoil for many years

Desperation has eaten me live

                Unfathomable vain destroy all strive

Movement jagged, uneven breaths

Anguish the adrenaline through blood it treads

Vengeance dawned in every prayer

                The conceit that conceal all my failures

Through envy there may I rise

To meet an equalize my pride

A spirit that would never yield

                As secondary in a warrior's field

The goal to reach the ultimate power

Yet my vigour seem to cower

At the sight of that haunting smile

                To place my boundaries out on trial

Once upon a time I tried

To corrupt this cherub with my lies

Failure do succeed again

                My ruthlessness deprived and diminished sent

To endless fleet of eternal forsake

Memories the ambition I take

To defeat this soulful mindless brother

                Who am I fooling…there is no other

That may ever surpass his great

I have weakened, my age has made

When I look back on these times

                Of exhilaration and triumphant crimes

Are history as the world near end

Tedious death…my life…is spent…
